Hi there tabjoan,
Today I found a brand new pack of cigs in my car (didn't know they were there till I found them staring at me quietly from the back of my SUV)... They were calling to me, whispering my name.
I continued cleaning out my SUV, ignoring their junkie voices... Finally, I walked over to my SUV - looked straight at that new pack of cigs, picked them up - took them in my kitchen, opened the pack, and cut each cig up in pieces (then took them outside and dumped the garbage in the garbage:) It felt so good. Till today I had not really been tempted - well today, I was both tempted and caught completely off guard when I saw that new pack staring at me. Man, what an addiction. And ya know what? This addiction is NO stronger than we are... No means N.O.P.E. say it - mean it. Do it...
Just say N.O.P.E. - and tell that junkie voice it's not welcome anymore... It will go away, dear one.
OK now I'm a Gloria Gayner song!
Blessings - be strong and own your Quit!
