In that you are thinking about those things @SD2026 demonstrates you have already dealt with them mentally so you won't be hit with an "out of the blue" craving. You'll have no problem getting past those issues and when you've faced them once, they will never be an issue again. All part of that 1st year quitting

Yes @Cbdave the simple things. To me It feels like a calmness that wasn't there before, which proves to me that smoking makes you stressed. I would never have believed that before I quit!

@Reciprocity this is what I've been thinking of recently, I already know Spring/Summer will be a trigger for me but at least I won't be caught off guard and will just try to prepare myself in some way.

I was the same @Keith First few weeks checking what health benefits I should expect by that week or if I had a negative experience, if that was normal, however I stopped when I could actually feel/see them for myself. It's a great feeling!

When I was still on the quitting/failing/quitting/failing merry go round, I didn’t realize that smoking made me feel worse, not better. Stepping off that cycle is hard, but you’ll be so proud of yourself when you do - and you will cherish your freedom. I like your note that you will need to do something different this coming Sunday. Make a plan and stick to it. Be especially vigilant any time you are HALTed… Hungry, Angry, Lonely or Tired. We (ab)used nicotine to take the edge off those feelings, and they can be big triggers. Quitting is a time of experimenting with new responses, not relying on smoking to pickle our feelings. Try again - you CAN do this!
