Hi everyone.
Thank you for your support. This site is great. I am still smoke-free. Having good days and bad ones, but still not smoking. It is such an accomplishment for me. I never ever tried to quit before, was absolutely sure I will never do it and here I am - 13 days and counting. I just would like to know why one day I could care less if I smoke or not and next day I am a raving lunatic. And when it will get easear. I know that 13 days is not a lot comparing to 40+ years of smoking but I pray for time when I will not think about cigarettes. My husband quit 10 years ago and he said that even to this day he sometimes thinks that it would be nice to have a cigarette after drink (or coffee, or dinner). What's with this drug that has such a hold on us? I envy people who could smoke one or two cigarettes a day. I smoked 10 cigarettes a day, not a lot, but if I multiply 10 by 365 (days a year) and by 40 (years smoked) it will give me 146,000.00 cigarettes smoked in 40 years. OMG, this is scary.
Sorry for long post, just today is not very easy day and I had to vent.
