Hi Booling! Welcome to the SSC. For your first day's homework, do the program and read all the posts you can. perhaps it will ease your fears a bit. Yes, smoking is killing you, this we all know for a fact!
Then start practicing seeing yourself NOT smoking is all those situations! (Non smokers do it every day). The rest, well you won't be doing all of those things today, we're going to be doing this one day at a time and thats all you have to worry about is today. Don't smoke today! Not One Puff Ever is our motto, and it works for today!
You will so feel like Paris HIlton again, but why would you want to...(unless you really are her!)
Yes, you used cigarettes to hide behind, to mask emotion, to drown emotion, to avoid, to please. Yes you are addicted to cigarettes.
But yes, you have quit and now you can be free of that cancer stick that was killing you!
Have some supplies on hand like cold water, hard candy, gum, straws, carrots sticks, your walking shoes and a positive attitude!
Get excited and don't worry, you quit smoking! Congratulations on the best decision of your life! We are here to help you, so whenever you need us, just post! there are lost of new quitters here who will hwlp you on your way!
