Hey Iwin and Hoss !!
Iwin, is your blahness new to you or have you had it in the past? I have quit a few times in my life and have felt somewhat depressed and blah would describe it. Maybe bored ?? Might try getting out.. a movie.. some shopping, reading, planning a weekend out of town, road trip ?? Are you on the patch or anything ? Might consider seeing your doctor if you feel depressed.. wellbutrin will pick you up and help you keep your quit. 31 days is tremendous.. maybe it's time to change something.. for the better.
Hey Hoss !
I'd sit down and remember why you wanted to quit. your inner addict is playing you good.. you don't really want a smoke do you ?? remember all the trouble it was.. the cost, the mess, the people who didn't want to be around you, the constant keeping up with buying them, the knowledge that you were detroying your lungs and heart.. ask your nicodemon if he has solved those problems yet.. if not.. tell him to move along..
You might try stepping down to a lower level of the patches.. you are still gettin nicotine.. maybe less will help you get use to less being in your system.. be sure to give your doctor a call if you don't know the correct way to step down. Do not think about smoking.. make it something that is over in your mind. Like ending a really bad relationship. It would provide some comfort to go back to it but in the end.. it would only be worse and a waste of your precious time (and more things too ).
I am on my 11th day. I hate smoking and know that it is just a wolf in sheep's clothing.. trying to lure me back into it's clutches.. That wolf doesn't get the time of day with me.. He shows up, I show him the door..
You both are so strong and I look up to you as where I want to be..
You all are going to figure this out.. alternatives.. look to them to make things better.
Take care and hang tuff !!
Christine
