And Doodles I just got back from an errand and hadn't time to finish this.
It's natural to want to smoke at this stage however I think you are letting yourself dwell too much. Craves and thoughtd will happen however you deal with them and don't let them get the upper hand. You get busy and don't dwell find other thoughts to fill your mind, distractions remember.
It is about getting to the point where you forget about smoking and we all can do this. Let the thoughts bounce off you, don't absorb them.
I use to light up when I was bored, it does not help and it's not a solution. Remember we are dealing with a habit that must be broken. That's the key. Find a way to break the habit.
Btw, I seem to only think about smoking when I think about people here trying to quit. I think back and try to position myself into what a person is going through. And when I'm remembering me as a smoker, I honestly can say there is absolutely no desire for a puff. Why? It is bad for you, there is no such thing as one, trying to break the habit is difficult and unpleasant, been there and done that, takes my cash and lastly I have no need for them. Smokes add no value to my existence, they in fact do the opposite, hinder my existence.
Got to work the weights now and take my hike! The good life and we have but one!
I am telling you this because you can be happy without smoking and YOU can and are able to forget about smoking. There is an end to it Doodles, you are nearing 100 and to be beach to join Sullydog. Now show us all what you are made of!
