Hi...I have been reading the thrive community postings over the last five days. Yes, today is Day 5 for me. Have to admit that yesterday, was an extremely hard day for me. It was the first time that I went to the Mall with my daughter. This is where I would normally buy my cigarettes and sit on a bench outside and have one, while she shopped. I was glad to leave, but must admit, I felt pretty proud when we got home and I had not given in. I think I can do this! I know I can do this! I keep repeating these two phrases to myself when the going gets rough. I never want to go through these withdrawal symptoms again? When will I really start to feel better? :quest:
