Ter, I'm so glad you had a good time with your friend and that your doing better. Some "moments" are short and some last longer. I had one of those yesterday...but the point is, they don't last forever. We all need to remember that. Your doing GREAT!! Keep it up and stay strong! Having each other makes us so much stronger. It's nice to lean on people when your feeling weak.

Good luck tonight. Envision us all there behind you - like the Verizon cell phone commercial.

At what point will you know if she will be smoking? Is she supportive of you in your quit? Would she at least not smoke around you?

The pressure is building.....I have read that somewhere before. I am ready to scream! My head feels like it is going to pop. Craving hard today. I am gone to meet and old friend tonight, who is in town for a couple days, it will be nice to visit with her. I hope that helps me unwind abit. She is a smoker, Used to be anyway. That has me a little worried. You can smoke in the restaurant. Just have lots of stuff on my mind. Need to decompress. I know a butt will not help, just been fighting craves!

IMC, she doesn't know I quit. I have not seen her in over a year. I am secretly hoping amybe she quit too. I know she will be supportive of my quit, I know I am going to be talking about the "stuff" that is going on. I am gone to be careful, and I will have my car.

All was fine. I was just so reeved up from earlier. We had a really nice time, and she has been thinking about quitting. A couple people close to her have recently quit. I told her about the awesome support here, Carr's book and Chantix, which I am not taking, but told her she should if she's thinking about quitting. It was a great night. She said that I had inspired her! As you can see, we stayed out pretty late, and I never craved. Thanks!
