My stop smoking counsellor (who has helped a LOT of ex smokers so has seen all the patterns many times) says we have to get through a full cycle of seasons (i.e. a year) so that we have lived through all triggers without a smoke. Because some might stop in the winter and think they're doing fine. Then summer comes and they want to sit out at the table enjoying the evening sun with their smokes. Or somebody stops in summer and they're fine. but then come the storms and they want to enjoy the cold lovely quiet with their....... You get the picture!
It gets a lot easier very soon I promise you. then according to my wise lady, it's a case of hanging on, by the fingertips if necessary, until you've been through it all at least once. when your confidence will soar and you will truly feel you've made it. Hope you managed to get some enjoyment from that day at home anyway.
