Bear, that is a common feeling...so I've done all this work, now what?
I would like to share with you something that another quitter recently wrote. Perhaps it will help.
[i]whilst driving home last night, and just outside the petrol station it hit me...and i realized...i HAVE quit..this is it..... as soon as i chose not smoke, i've quit. I wonder if the fact I've always failed long term is because I've been waiting for this magical mythical moment that doesnt come..a moment where after putting in a few weeks or months of work I expect to reach a point where I gradute into a NON SMOKER and will be able to do it easily without thinking. I expected to be rewarded with being officially "quit"....but maybe this day wont come..all I need is to keep choosing.
This is the quit. This is it right now. I am a non smoker. I just need to keep going and not wait for it to be magically easier. Because it might not be.
And if I can do one day, then I can do them all....[/i]
Good luck, Bear!
Rusty :)
