Hi Meagain!
I just have a few things to mention...... First, when we quit, we really learn stuff about ourselves. For me, one of them being, how [color=Purple]great[/color] I feel. I never felt like my smoking was making me feel not-so-good. However, now that I don't smoke, I realize what it feels like to really feel good. Compared to what I felt then to now, I [color=Brown]did[/color] feel bad. Did I make any sense???? :confuse:
Secondly, you mentioned that when you did the workbook, you had no triggers. You will. For one, your home office. Once you quit, you will wonder what to do when you are in there. It really feels different. Every place you smoked will be a trigger.
I agree with you on cleaning out that room. Gather [color=Green]all[/color] smoking related materials and trash them. Sprinkle some carpet fresh and vacume. Dust with some sort of spray. Then spray Fabreeze everywhere!! Once that room is disinfected, [color=Navy]DO NOT[/color] smoke in there. Regardless.
Lastly, I would start back on your quit right now. I had almost a half a pack left when I crushed them. Of course, I was hypnotized. But, I never got to say 'good-bye' to them. I didn't realize I was smoking my last one. I thought, later in my quit, that if I had smoked my 'last' one, it would be different. Who knows, but I am over that feeling now. It really does pass. Just note that it is the addiction telling you that you would be better off waiting until you run out of cigs. It's a lie.
Any way you choose to quit, whether it be by NRT's or not, and whether it be now or later, the choice is yours. Once you commit yourself, do not give up. Reach out to us! We are all here to support eachother, whenever we need to! You can do this... just take small, baby steps. And adopt [color=Red]N.O.P.E.[/color] ([color=Red]N[/color]ot [color=Red]O[/color]ne [color=Red]P[/color]uff [color=Red]E[/color]ver)
Gain your strength, get mad, then fight!!!
