There are craves and there are "smoking thoughts". I promise all you newbies that the craves will NEVER be as bad as they were in the first few weeks. They become a passing thought...this is a very weird analogy, but, for me, they are like the phantom pain we hear about with a missing limb.....I know it will never be there again yet I sort of feel it. I will never smoke again but I do remember, vaguely, what it was like.
Also, we quitters are a bunch of whining children. Don't take everything you read here too seriously. Not everyone has all these experiences that you read about everyday. In addition, you will notice there are the queens of quitters, the masters of macho, the preacher persons in the church of the almighty quit, the serial slippers and my favorite, the common sense quitters with humor.
It's just all about don't smoke.

Hi three, what about if you went for a shop (no smoking there), buy a/another 100 day reward (I'm thinking music and a movie), and then you will be both distracted and having a good time when you get home whilst this too passes. That nicodemon is a tricky little dickens. This is his last stand and you will not let him win.
Just don't smoke,
Janet

BuhBye BFS......I don't think you will really bow out. Hey sscfolks, let's start a pool and take bets on how long the little lady can stay away before she is overwhelmed with the need to post ;p. OK, having a little fun with you, you have been around alot for a long time and will be missed. :eg:
Good luck with all your future endeavors!!! :)
NOPE,

Ditto, KatieScarlett, I am right behind you and just so dam proud to have made it. Life is so much better. Yes, there was some "discomfort" getting here but well worth it. How I love breathing fresh clean air. How glad I am that I never feel the discomfort of needing to smoke. And the extra money not spent giving myself a horrendous disease is very nice, too.
Smack that junkie forever,
Janet :)
