Found This


15 years ago 0 183 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
Let me clarify, I used the title "Found This" because I found it. I am experiencing most of these, but I never had asthma, allergies or a cough. Dont want to miss lead, just thought it was good. It was bugging me thinking everyone thought I wrote it, actually everything is bugging me today. I know its part of the process. Another thing I didnt sleep like a rock last nite, I think maybe the patches are giving me nightmares and just plain had a hard time getting to sleep. Today, still having the blahs. That sucks since I need to be moving forward and when you feel this way its hard to have any focus.

Every breath I take feels so clean and refreshing
I'm not tired during the day...yet I sleep like a rock at night
I have more stamina, endurance, and confidence
More cash in my pocket
My clothes don't stink
I'm not ashamed of smoking anymore
My anxiety level has gone way, way down
I can breathe!
I'm working out like a champ
I am in control of ME
No more coughing
I'm eating better--I used to substitute cigarettes for food a lot
I can smell again
My complexion is much better
My heart feels relaxed...like it can do more work with less effort now
Less heartburn and indigestion
More respect for myself
No need to worry about attending events where I can't smoke
My house smells good! My car smells good!
No more fear of fire caused by smoking
I spend money on my health now, like working out at a health club, instead of on cigs
My sinus problems are gone!
My allergies and asthma have improved
I don't feel like a hypocrite
I can sing again!
No more time wasted smoking
Whiter teeth
Fresh breath
Sharper thinking
Pride in myself
No more guilt about exposing family and friends to secondhand smoke
Confidence in my ability to achieve whatever goal I set for myself!
Smoking cessation is hard work at times, especially early on, but dig your feet in and give it all you've got. Remind yourself daily about why you want to quit smoking, and picture yourself as a contented ex-smoker, free
