today is my 3rd day... took off from work since i always liked to say that work (which consist of many outside errands) was always the biggest reason i couldn't quit... still have to face it tomorrow but it will put 3 days and a spin class (whoo) behind me.
No intros yet... so here is my info...
busy bee worker smoked for 15 years and got to the point i didn't even realize the days that i smoked 40 plus YUCK! i quit every morning... after talking myself up a tnight... beating myself up about not doing it... of course 5 mins after waking p... still smoking... i can't remember actually trying this hard before...my new non-smoking b.f. has been let in on my "secret smoking" and now congratulate me, and my sister (quit smoking a year ago) is getting married in sept and i want to be a healthy M.O.H so hi to everyone here...congrats to you and thanks for this site!
thank you everyone!! i have roamed around gone through the check list and will defn read more post and try and make this an active distraction... so far so good...since this quit # 48904703...and i have used every method under the stars... alan carr, patches, chantrix, acupunture... all of it...so this time i am on wellbutin (again) but i feel it's a cold turkey quit more than the drugs...
i have had a few moments of "but i usually smoked *insert place/time*" but i am telling myself that after three days, i can keep going- otherwise it's smoke again and go through this all over again! thanks for the support and i will get in to this site for support since i do feel that the lack of it was my downfall before!
I have also taken my candy addiction to a new level- so i might have to "quit" that next!
just started myself... advise...hmmmm too new to give it- except... do youu really want to keep doing the quit thing over and over? I thought not!!! since i am in the same boat 3 days addiction free... i am here for you!
I did start posting already so i skipped the step of proper introduction...
Let me do that now :)
I have been a smoker for 15yrs. quit maybe a total of 3mths (total)... it had become my identity that is until i realized that my "id" was taking over. No more could i keep track or even pretend to be aware. I was smoking so many i was shocked! Then as my sister and all my friends, heck everyone stopped smoking, then i started dating a health nut...then i was secret smoking! so i decided to come out w. the truth blow the roof off sort of thing, and deal w this killing problem.
I started blogging on my own blogger page but decided that i actually want to talk to people about it... i don't have very many close relationships (prob cause i smoked and hated it) i have pulled the resources i have "here" but needed people who knew what i was taking about...more inspiration. and yes, a distraction...lol.
so heres to knowing you and quiting, this time for good!!!
PS been shaky the last few hrs of today (day 3) but keep reminding myself that it isn't worth it...

hey my roommate is a smoker as well... defn sucks to have to kind-of hide from her... but i keep telling myself this is for me not for her... then the other day it was raining and i was relieved it was her standing out there and not me! just play hide for a bit.. then accept that you have to find a deeper reason, since it's in your face...i understand!
