I actually have a picture of him on my phone...I do see it when my phone rings...maybe I do have one and didn't know it was there for that reason. I just know that thinking of him helps...but also I am stubborn HAHA and I do NOT want to be a loser. I am a WINNER and that is what I see here with the death of NICOTINE. Ha Ha. I Love my Grandson so much....and I Love myself....I want LIFE not DEATH...and I have a very important surgery coming up that I have to have a blood test to show I am Nicotine Free...that gave me the first nudge...but I set a date and started then on MY CHOICE...a CHOICE FOR LIFE...and a BETTER LIFE with my Grandson.
There I go rambling on and on again. I am just so GLAD TO BE NICOTINE FREE......and know that I CAN DO THIS...and I will prove ANYONE WRONG THAT THINGS I CAN'T! Ha Ha...I am a fighter for Life...have done many times...and will not stop now... I THANK SSC FOR ALL THE SUPPORT!!! I DO NEED IT!
Will....Thanks...I managed to go out to a club and STILL NOT SMOKE! Amen to that! I am doing better today...each day seems to bring something different. Some good and some bad. But I am not craving the nicotine...just want to stop the ECigarettes too. I feel like I am cheating but I just am having a hrd time. I am not smoking them as often though....so I know I am doing better. They are 0mg Nicotine so I should be able to do it soon...the Nicotine is already gone...and the cravings are gone...for the most part Ha Ha.
Thanks for Jumping on my Ship to Recovery....That is how I feel a Recovering Drug Addict...NICOTINE..
I have never quit before this time...but I was ready. I set my date just as you did. I quit 6-13-11 at 10:00pm...said this is the last one I will smoke...and it has been. I have had alot of help from people on this amazing board as you will find you will too.
STAY STRONG FOR YOU! It is hard but SOOO WORTH IT...
Like I said I am a NEWBIE here too...so we will both get through this. I have a "No Smoking Buddy" that I met on here and that helped alot too. so if you wanna vent...here it is...
Penitent...Thanks...and YOU ARE SO RIGHT! I AM GONNA BREAK THIS ADDICTION! 6-13-2011 at 10pm was my LAST CIGARETTE! (Nicotine that is)
It sure feels so great to say that....
I have heard from many people that these E Cigarettes contain NICOTINE...so I did my research and found a company that has NO NICOTINE AND NO OTHER HARMFUL POISIONS. I did order them and can say that after the worse part of the nicotine withdrawl came...then urge to actually smoke the e cigarettes has gone away too. So I BELIEVE THEY WORK...if you have your MIND SET. ANYTHING WORKS as long as your MIND SAYS YES YES YES.....
Thanks Penitent....we will stay in touch I am sure...
Beauty to me is not just through eyes...it is a feeling inside....I feel beauty when I KNOW that my body is getting CLEAN FROM NICOTINE....everyday is a struggle but every day is rewarding...
Close your eyes for a few minutes while sitting outside in the grass....beauty can be felt by those that can not see...we can feel it too...INSIDE and with our hands if we just take some time to STOP AND SMELL THE ROSES!
I DID IT...I DID IT.... I MADE it past the 2 weeks! Yes! Today I am 15 Days "CLEAN OF NICOTINE!!!" I just wish there was some way to talk to someone on here when there is something going on and just need to talk to someone that understands....any idea if there will be something..like Instant Messaging on here? I have had a few hard times but I HAVE DONE IT! THANKS TO MY NO SMOKING BUDDIES!
Going out side and smelling flowers...looking at them in detail....knowing that me not smoking has given me more time to enjoy then....though touch....smell and sight!
I am SO GLAD TO BE AN EX-SMOKER!!!!! Yeah 16 days at 10pm (PST)....I am SOOO HAPPY! Thanks for this board!
REMEMBER TO SMELL AND TOUCH THE BEAUTY OUTSIDE!!! It is amazing seeing with your other other parts of your body than just eyes! ENJOY!
Ashley...they are not FDA approved here either...but I do alot of research on them and I found one that contains NO NICOTINE. It has helped me to the point that I do not even need them anymore. it is a liquid vapor that is in these containing NO NICOTINE...but I agree that they are NOT FDA approved and it is not something to promote..just wanted to see if anyone else knew of them or tried them. I did get info from 2 people that did use them and it gave me info I needed.
I AM NOT PROMOTING THIS...just was the way I chose to stop. I am not 16, almost 17 days FREE!
I am at the point I just count out my cravings now....seems to last about 12-15 seconds at the most and then gone.
It will be 23 days in less then 12 hours...and I have a heavy feeling in my chest. I am starting to weeze like when I was younger and had ashma...I never coughed up stuff like others told me they did and I would. I am coughing some now but nothing like when I actually smoked! I have been totally clean of nicotine since 6-13-2011 at 10:00pm...so I guess I don't know what this means...anyone else have this??? I am not around smokers and have not slipped...but I am weezy....CRAZY STUFF! I DO FEEL BETTER but I do NOT like this AT ALL! HELP PLEASE? ANYONE!
Thanks everyone...I have another question...ho long does it take for your lungs to detox from nicotine? I thought I was through the withdrawls already......will call the dr and see when he can get me in....(He makes it very hard to get in to see him.....time to find a new doctor...or maybe I will go to the after hours clinic)
Thanks everyone..
And THANKS for noticing that it is almost a FULL MONTH! I AM SO EXCITED! I do NOT CRAVE IT! I am so HAPPY TO BE FREE OF NICOTINE....
I am an Addict and I am not using....that is what nicotine has made me feel like...and I believe it is in the drugs catagory. Nicotine is the WORST...Easiest drug to get...because it is LEGAL....let's home the prices of cigarettes go UP....and home more people stop.
THANKS FOR THE SUPPORT! I come here EVERY DAY...if only to read. THIS SITE HAS HELPED ME STAY CLEAN!
