From your fellow anglophone, January quitter living in France and coping with stress, I'm glad to see you held out. Vacation periods can be difficult. Time on one's hands and time to think about smoking. Congratulations on your 39 days.

I printed out the original post on the "A Little Help for my Friends" thread, and took it with me on my three week vacation (actually, some of it was business, but I didn't work very hard). I had fun reading some of my favourite quotes to fellow non-smokers on the ski-lifts. A great help - thanks very much indeed! I'll be back posting in a day or so after I've read all the posts I've missed. Oh, and I haven't had a cigarette in 39 days. Did I mention that?

Wow, Marcus Lots of self awareness going on there. Glad to hear you put things in perspective and have made some resolutions about the relationship between stress and smoking and what you can do about it. I know we suggested relaxing and taking some time for pleasure and pampering, but sheesh...a three week vacation??!!!..lol...good for you!!! when i went on a vacation early in my quit i took along a post that had lots of good suggestions. I'll bump it up for you, it's called A Little Help for my Friends. But any one page post that has meaning for you would work as well. Also, as Sue suggested, keep the reasons you quit close by. I also enlisted my friend as my "quit guardian". Even tho she smoked, I asked her to talk sense into me if I was tempted to cave. There was one situation where that was needed, and I came home smoke free. I am sure you will too, because you're a non smoker now :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 303 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 12,120 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $2,060.40 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 42 [B]Hrs:[/B] 19 [B]Mins:[/B] 33 [B]Seconds:[/B] 22

Good luck on your vacation, Marcus and I'm very glad that my quit buddy didn't cave in to the stress situation and try to alleviate it with a cigarette. There are powerful friends on this site and I know that you and I are grateful for the help through the fuzzy hours... right now I'm suffering the Irritability Syndrome and every brief conversation with people is something I have to get away from before I blow my top... I hope this doesn't last... I'm fine on my own but the irritation makes me think of smoking,.... Bad bad bad...
