I set my quit date for 12 12 because I was scheduled for surgery on my shoulder, I had my last one walking from the car to to the hospital at 5:15 this morning - so almost 22 hours now - YEAH . As soon as I awoke from surgery, I brought a patch and the nurse put it on. The lack of nicotine hasnt been the big problem - its the habit, Because of the surgery, I am also on alot of pain medication and anxiety meds. I have been in bed most of the day and even though I never smoked in bed - I have been having nightlares if dropping a lit cigg in my bed and panic. All ciggs, lighters and ashtrays were removed by my adult son when I was at the hosptial. I keep reaching for them when they are not hear. I have to be watched the 1st 24 hours because of my breathng and I got uo earlyier and said ti my friend thats over - since your up I am gonna smoke a cigg - but it was a habit - and as soom as I remembered I quit this morning - all I could do was laugh get a glass of water and a mint.
I have so many reasons I want to quit but the biggest one of all is my little girl - I had her in my 40s - she is 7 now and I want to see her get married. IF I keep smoking that wont happed.
I told the nurses that this is not going to be a try and a do - because it is gonna happen. I have alot of support frommany friends who are non smokers no but I am very glad I found this site. Thanks for listenig
