I DID IT!

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 33

I went to the shops today to buy a packet of smokes. I just felt sick of struggling to not do something I enjoyed doing for 52 years. Well, guess what? I just couldn't do! I would have hated myself, let myself down, let my son, who is a constant support down, and let all you encouraging people down. Instead, I came home, and turned on my computer.

ALTHEA You should be so proud of what you did!! To think that you were on your way to getting the smokes and then stopped shows great strength. Keep your quit and keep checking in. vicki just 1 puff away from 2 packs a day [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 10/17/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 89 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,578 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $623 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 12 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 0 [B]Seconds:[/B] 47

Congratulations Arthor! You passed the test. You wouldn't want to throw away those 13 days that you worked so hard for. Keep on quitting. Trust me...you are going to love being a non-smoker.

I'm so happy for you author1! The 'puter is a much better alternative. And now you can get busy thinking of some awesome 2-week reward to spend your $97 on tomorrow!

Althea, please know that this addiction will continue to try to sneak up on you. You will be tested again and again. But each time you don't light up, your addiction gets weaker. Stay strong!

What's the big deal? I'll tell you what the big deal is...you had coping skills or you would not have walked away. Did you throw a bomb into the cigarette rack at the store?
