Wanna Quit Quitting

Mich, Please consider what you are doing! You quit for a reason! In fact, I bet you had several really good reasons for quitting! I think the best quote to use here is from August. [quote] I HAVE MADE A CHOICE TO END MY SLAVERY. I made this choice while I was logical, level headed and KNEW from the bottom of my soul how much I wanted to be a non-smoker. While I am in withdrawal/recovery, I am not being logical or level headed. When I want to smoke, I must remember that I made this decision (once again when I was being logical) and should trust myself to stick with it. I have tasted freedom before, and I know I can again. [/quote] Right now, you're in withdrawals and just want it to end... I understand that, but it WILL end if you're patient! No, quitting isn't easy, but you're fighting for your life here! Isn't that worth the fight?!?! I agree that you need to go out and reward yourself for 3 long, hard weeks of freedom. I hope that makes you feel better! Crave the Quit!

Hi, Mich. You've got 22 days on your meter. Three weeks is a fantastic accomplishment you really don't want to let go of. Have you been rewarding yourself? Rewards are very important, especially during the early stages of a quit. They help offset the natural depression caused by nicotine deprevation. Don't listen to the junkie, Mich. I'm guessing he's yelling loud and clear. Ignore him, he lies. How are you doing?

mich, Please don't give up quitting, I did once before & I have regretted it every since. Its all about mindset, and funnily enough I found a copy of a post Anne-Maire had added about it. I've only got 14dys at the mo, but will know this time will be the last time I quit. I read and re-read Allen Carrs book which helps with the mind probs that the addiction makes us feel. It would maybe get you back to thinking logically even though your in withdrawal. Good Luck and please stick wi it Kate
