Hi there again!
Well, I just wanted to let you know that I am here for you. I will be by your side and I will watch your progress. I am always on my computer!
I thought when my hubby & I quit, all hell would break loose in our house!!! I thought about how I (and him) would treat the kids. I sure was wrong! However, I do praise the hypnotist for that. When we were hypnotised, we were told how to relax, how to breathe, and how to stay calm. I know the only reason our house isn't on fire is because of this. Other than that, we both went COLD TURKEY!! We have tried the patch before, but didn't like it. I cant have meds becuz of past siezures.
I know that not everybody can afford a hypnotist ($200/per session), but to us, we knew many people who have suceeded with it, so we saved up! If I didnt do this, I would definately find some sort of NRT, as you are in a situation that prevents you from showing complete despair!
It is sad that I cannot share my triumph with my family. But I have a lot of other support, so I make myself not think of it. Telling them would be worse.........
Whatever you choose, just know that we will all be here for you. Just keep in mind, it does get easier! My first 3 days were horrid! I felt like the craving lasted all day long. But I made a choice -- smoking was NOT an option. I chose life, health, and most important, my girls.
Stay strong, and post all of the time. Read old posts as well!
