I have to be honest here though - I complained about the 2nd job pre quit. I took it because its retail with human interaction. I have worked from home for my day job which I absolutely love. But I felt like I needed human interaction. I remembered why I quit retail a hundred years ago. Its a like/dislike job. Some parts are ok some are just tiring. Mostly people that argue about limits/pricing. All policies corporate puts in place but the minions get the brunt of their rudeness when they dont get their way. As far as the quit, That is positive. The 2nd job just makes me say more potty language. The only part that is not is that I wander around the store and find good deals. I spent too much in my first month of quitting lol. My grandaughters benefitted though and I did finally buy a kindle 🤭

The only way you will get medical answers Is talking to your doctor Every body is different We are not qualified to give you any medical advice All I can tell you is I was very tired at the beginning on my own quit After being quit for a couple of years , any concerns should be discussed with your doctor 🐸

I agree with the Daily Pledge it can be a powerful tool Making that promise you won’t smoke for 24 hrs got me through the tough times The more tools you have , the better Also try turning all your negative thoughts into positive ones, after all what your achieving if flippin amazin 🐸

I get it! The early days of my quit I was so consumed with trying to keep my quit that just normal day to day stuff seemed like more of a chore and frankly an annoyance than ever before. As you also mentioned, I find this time of year; after the beauty of early autumn but before the first winter snow, to be particularly difficult ... almost depressing just due to so much more darkness and the weather where I live seems to always be dreary in November/early December. There's no magic bullet for getting through the early stages of one's quit ... hard work in keeping focused on the ultimate goal is a powerful tool and WILL pull you through if you can keep your desire to achieve that ultimate goal as your number one mental focus every day. Have you thought about making a daily pledge of NOPE each day when you first get on whatever electronic device you use to come to the site? The thread for that is on the main page and titled "The Daily NOPE Pledge". It's a simple yet good way to recommitt yourself each day to not smoking; just for today!

NOPE

Ha I always have my big girl pants on, still like to complain about my 2nd job its tiring and makes my feet hurt lol. Its not horrible just exhausting. Not smoking just makes it more amplified haha. I have some good friends there that make it fun 😁 id just rather be curled up with a nice blanket and a good book. Winter makes me want to be a hermit. Its dark and cold
