I like the point about giving the mind something else to focus on. For me, the hard puzzles and games work better than just telling myself to ignore a craving, since idle hands seem to invite the nagging thoughts back. The repetition idea is useful too — a short phrase to ride out the urge rather than fighting it. I haven't tried that approach with sudoku specifically, but the reasoning makes sense. Thanks for bumping it for those of us still working through the early days.

N.O.P.E. 🙏

A message to @ethanjohnson & @williamlewis ... You are both new to the forum which is great, assuming you're both either quitting somking or about to quit or even if you're already long term quitters. A good part of the purpose of the Introductions & About Us thread is to do just that ... introduce yourself to the other members and give us a little background about yourselves, such as your current quit status so we can perhaps know what ideas might be of help to you according to what stage of a quit you're at. The other important thing for all new members to understand is that there are NO judgements here about how any new member is quitting. Our quits are similar in some ways and different in other ways. The whole purpose of this place is to offer support to new quitters and also to keep ourselves on the straight & narrow for those of us who have quit for a length of time. You both don't even have to worry about what to say here providing you're civil to others, This is a safe place for quitters; a placee for support and information about quitting. So, welcome aboard the Quit Train both of you 🎉🥳

Having a plan for the solarium and non-smoking casino seems smart, especially since the shaded spot can feel like the same crowd every day. The paint by the sea excursion sounds like a good change of scenery, and it probably helps that your granddaughter will be with her daddy and papa so you and your daughter get that time together. Two weeks out, I'd be counting down too.
