Yosemite

So, a while ago, back as a non-smoker, I went to Yosemite. It was beautiful out, even though it was cold at night. This time I brought warm pajamas and extra blankets. This was the last week in April. Unlike last year when we went there, I was actually able to hike up partway the mist trail. I didn't even get tired, we had to turn back because my dad's knee was giving out (there were a lot of slippery steps on the way up and puddles along the way) and my mom couldn't carry her bag up the steps,

My anger issues + new fresh quit = explossive??

I'm blowing up so angry. Dunno why. I'm angry at the anger... Hold on, rewind: Fresh start, new STICKY quit and so friggin irritated, angry, Joel says it's normal... Is it? Am I finally feeling? Am I human enough, no longer the weirdo-- the mental health 'one'.   No, it's hormones, mix them with new medication, stick a new sticky quit in it: poof there's one big load of energy that needs to be out.   I'll be here, often this time :) Angry or happy or sad, just to let of steam

Restarting my quit

This time I'm using the patch. I know there's mixed feeling about using NRT, but this morning I woke up and first thing I did was put on the patch. And I'm doing fantastic. My quit's never been easier. It helps my depression was figured out and I'm awake and alert now instead of down in the dumps. I don't miss cigarettes at all. I have small craves here and there, but they're horribly manageable for now. This is the best first day of a quit I've had. I feel marvelous. I even took two walks today

Surprised by my will power

13 days now, and I just got through my second weekend as a non-smoker!   The weekend is the hardest because that's when there's the most free time. My old routine was to sit on the back patio in the morning with my husband and roommates. We would spend a couple hours sitting out there drinking coffee, smoking and talking together. I really enjoyed that. I've sat out there with them a bit since quitting, but it's not the same. I get bored and I watch them smoke and I think to myself "this is a

Double digits baby, Day 10!

It's day 10 smoke free. I know it's not a long time yet, but in just 10 short days... who am I kidding, these were the LONGEST 10 days of my life. Anyways, in just 10 blank days, I've coped with a lot of emotions, moods, sensations, etc. Both good and bad. It hasn't all been horrible, but some of it was definitely was.   I know I am not done yet, but I feel like I am over a hump for some reason.   I started with the patch and gum as a safety net to get me through while I dealt with burying o

Derailed for a bit but back on track...

Friday was to be my quit day... I was breezing along doing fairly well that day but had a bump in the road and I just imploded. Traumatic events that happen that early was just too much for me. On Saturday morning I had to put my beloved boxer dog Baxter down after only a couple days of illness so I had no time to even consider such a horrific outcome. He was 10 1/2 and I had had him since he was 4 weeks old and he was the love of my life.   I got back on the train though late yesterday aft

Please, Take Your Lives Seriously !

Please, Take Your LIVES Seriously ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ In 'real' life and here on the QTrain, I see people being careless about their lives and their quit, like they have all the time in the world ! 'I'll quit next week, maybe tomorrow, I'll quit again sometime'.   Are they not understanding how dangerous smoking is ? It's a friggin' Slow Suicide ! The ramifications are Horrible. This is no joke. Ask our beautiful friend, Doreen !   I, too, used to be casual about quitting, c

Day two, kind of....

Allen Carr's book said that strategizing when a good time to quit is can be difficult.. if you quit in a stressful time we'll want a cigarette even more and if we quit in a non stressful time we'll have no need to quit because we think smoking relieves stress... haha.. I think his point was that we all so don't get that we think we smoke to relieve stress and in reality we stress because we smoke, we don't want to smoke and the minute we put one down we're anxious about when we'll be able to smo

Saying Hello and preparing to QUIT

I have not quit yet.. I am mentally preparing myself and I am finding lots of good stuff on this site. Thank you for all the resources and information you all are providing.   My quit date is May 29th.. I chose that date because that will be the day I am 21 days alcohol free. The alcohol had to go first as I smoke a lot when I drink and I drank everyday. I feel I have to eliminate as many triggers as I can.   I smoke about 10 cigs a day. Misty 120 menthol ultra lights. I buy the long o

Smoking Dream

I had a smoking dream last night. And usually it's just me smoking. This time it was actually going over to mom's smoking area, and my brother was there, and I held a finger to my lips like "shh." Then getting a cig and lighting up. It was just weird. My brother was even young in my dream. Like, not old enough to shave young, and he's 27 now. There was a bench there too. Like one of those wooden park benches. I remember I was happy and smiling like a kid. And I woke up and it was so satisfying.

Easter

So, this is a little late. But this Easter we weren't planning on doing anything. So then me and my sister were talking and thought about putting a little something together with family, but we couldn't get a hold of mom to talk to her about it so we decided we were just going to call our brother and have him come home for Easter. And of course, my sister would too. So I talked to dad and we went out while mom was at Bingo to get baskets, plastic grass, and stuff for the Easter baskets. So, choc

Nature Day

Today I had a nature day. I went out and photographed a few clovers and dandelions, then the trees that were in bloom before and are in leaf now. Then I washed my leather jacket (cats had peed on it when I first moved into my parents' house) now that I have the special leather soaps and conditioners. Found out leather dries really slowly. So I played in the plants. Ran my hands over the tops of the grass, through some soft weeds, and through some feathery ones. Thought of smoking once in the mor

Writing Meetup

So, I decided I needed to branch out more and found this writing group on Meetup called Shut Up & Write. It's about an hour and a half. An hour writing and half an hour for introductions and getting to know each other. With the dreams I've been having and the racing thoughts I have now, I figure I might actually be able to sit down and write. I hadn't realized smoking was probably adding to my depression because I feel like going out and doing stuff every day. Now if dad would just approve a

2 years tomorrow

I don't think at the time I quite understood the guru's ahead of me, when they said quitting is a journey and not an event. I sure as hell get it now. What a ride!!   This time 2 years ago I sat with cigarettes, 16 days worth of champix taken and a deep sense of desperation to not be a smoker - with no idea how to achieve that. I never really realized it was as simple as just not smoking. I don't really know why, it seems glaringly obvious doesn't it?! I could do an oscar worthy speech of who

Depression and Withdrawl

Where to begin...   I think bupropion was acting as an antidepressant as well as helping me quit smoking because I became depressed and had horrible cravings after I stopped it. As I became more depressed, I didn't want to go on the computer. I also spent more time on the couch with the TV on, but paying attention to it less and less. Then I ran out of Geodon (my mood stabilizer) and went through withdrawl. I spent an entire day on the couch doing nothing except using the bathroom and eating w

On the Edge of Relapse

I just feel like I'm on the edge of relapse today. I keep telling myself NOPE. But it's like I want to smoke. It hasn't been this bad in a while. I don't know if it's coming off the bupropion or what. Today I just feel like crap. My run didn't go well. I mean, I still kinda made it, but it didn't go as I'd like. I didn't enjoy it at all. My dad tried to encourage me but I just couldn't get my spirits up. I can't figure anything I want to do except sleep and smoke, so I've mostly been sleeping. I
