Hi poor Alexa
I envy your stat, I am only 5 days in quitting, every day away from smoking become an earned time, and I hate to loose. This kinda keep me going because I do not wantt to have to go through it again.
Alexa, did you do your homework; Do you know all withdraw symptoms, craving and other changes you will go through.
When people talk about quitting experience, they mean their own, which is different for everybody. I'v heard some say the first 24 hours are the hardest, I heard others say the third day, others the seventh day, and others the tenth day, still others the 30th day.
Nothing is set in concrete for everybody. Do you get it?
Alexa, Anyone of us can always go back to smoking, it is the easiest
thing to do.
I and everybody here can identify with every word you said, Just about the same thing we all say when the craving is striking like no where to run and no where to hide , almost to the letter. This is called junkie thinking and junkie talk, remember.
At this time, your addiction is still very strong, therefore you cannot see clearly, Please let the ones who walked this path before you help you and tell you what to do and how to deal with this. Trust these oldies, and be gratefull they are around here to help us, the newbies, maybe they did not have no one themselves.
Let them ease your road as much as you let them. Still is not going to be a rosey road, but it'll be the safest possible through this.
All you have to do is listen, take their wise words to your heart. You are not any different than they were and knew.
Good luck..Adam
