" I've done such a great job so far , one quick drag is like a little reward for doing so well ....." This is the junkie thinking that has sent me back to being a smoker in the past. My addict reasoning tells me that I'm doing such a wonderful job that maybe I can buy a pack and just have one when I really need one. Well , I did buy a pack and I did smoke the whole pack that day and did continue for probably another twenty years. My addict told me that I deserved to have one when nothing could be further from the truth. In retrospect , yes I was doing well , and a smoke was the last thing I deserved. Anyway , this is the type of thinking that can sabotage the quit in a heartbeat. No one is immune. Smoking is a choice and today I choose to breathe fresh clean air. Stopping smoking is the best thing I've ever done and when I think about it it makes me happy. Nobody deserves to have a smoke for not smoking , how insane is that ? Excellent for us for not smoking today. breather
"If I’ve come this far I can certainly come back and reach this stage again..."
This is the one thought in my head that drives me crazy. I catch myself thinking this at least twice a day. I have to constantly remind myself of how hard the first day was, and do I really want to go through that again? It's too bad NRT's don't make those voices shut up! lol
