Today, I am my own Super Hero


17 years ago 0 16 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
I don't know what has come over me but today i feel so super confident about my quit. I haven't really wanted to smoke today. Thats not to say i haven't thought about cigarettes. But mostley i have notice i am thinking about, if i am thinking about them, If that makes any sense to you. I seem to kinda forget about them until my little innervoice reminds me by thinking " are you doing ok? are you thinking about cigarettes?". Today Is good and thats all i can hope for. Tomorrow i could be a cry baby, hateful lunatic again, but TODAY IS GOOD! I don't want to turn in to one of those people who preach to smokers about quiting, but i did mention to a smoker friend ( who has said several times over the years that she knows she needs to quit) that she should join this website once she finally makes her choice to quit. I have had many ups and downs the last few days and it has been a great release to come here and read and share experiences. It truely helps! Thank you all so much for being here! A very Happy FlowerPot

Flowerpot, thank you for posting your thoughts. I have been sort of afraid to let myself feel proud or too good because I'm afraid it wont last. After reading your posting I know that is wrong, I should take it one day at a time and just enjoy the good feeling of being smoke free. I an seeing real results, my blood pressure is down and I can really tast and smell things now. I helps so much to know how other people are coping and to feel part of a big pictur.

Flowerpot, You are doing good. I have been confident this week too. Shoot I made it through weekend with hubby. I am not over confident. I know how tricky and sneakiy addictions are. I have read allot were poeple get bad cravings at like 14days or 3 weeks. I am trying not to think about it to much about it. For now I am loving my quit. Loving what I am doing for myself. Thats the most important thing. Grace Good job keep on keepin on.
