Woot woot! Congrats on two months :)

Had very odd dreams... Along with sleeplessness. The weird dreams stopped for me after week two :)

H*LL NOPE! :-)

NOPE :)

Im late as always - CONGRATS :)

Congrats :)

I feel like this happens to me quite often! But I totally agree... THERE IS NO REASON TO SMOKE, just like there was no reason to start smoking in the first place. You are so strong, and this post even gave me more inspiration to tell the daemon to F right off! :) Way to go Sandy! Blessed be S

NOPE :)

Nope - super late but still counts :)

Nope

Congratulations! One year is beautiful! :)

Congratulations :)

Thanks everyone for the great tips and re-assuring thoughts. You guys make it so much easier to go through this stuff... Before I always thought I was going looney toones lol. Marti - I will definitely try the witch hazel, anything to get rid of the zits! :) I can't wait till the thoughts are slim to none. It makes me sad that my addicted brain has to go to such a dark place! Blessed be ♥

Coffee smells amazing!! :) And I agree Evelyn, fresh baked bread smells delicious!

NOPE! And have a great vacay Marti, I love Florida!! :)

Thanks everyone! It felt good to express my struggles. I think that was the problem in the past, not talking about it. I didn't want to burden anyone with my problems regarding quitting (ie, family, friends), it was almost as if I was ashamed of my quit - meaning ashamed that I started smoking to have to be in the predicament of quitting the nasty addiction. So I would just bottle it up, and battle the quit on my own. The issue with that is, if you are in a momentary lapse of weakness it could be dangerous territory...But I've learned to talk about it, and also to come on here with you amazing people whom support and offer great advice ♥ Tackling the quit on your own is tough - and I don't want to sound like I understand everything there is to know about quitting, but from a former relapser, expressing yourself on here, in a journal, or to your friends and family can really help.

NOPE :-)

Ahh - so relieved to hear this! :) :) Especially the thoughts. Glad that they will slowly disappear! Thanks for the input DevilDoll :)

Okay, so I am surpassing the one month period of my quit. Everything was going very well until now. My face has literally broke out in quit zits. I never had a blemishes until now. Makes me wonder all the chemicals leaving my body? Eeek! (poor body) I know this was mentioned in a thread, however does any one have any recommendations for it? Or do I just need to ride out the storm? Secondly, my mind lurks to the thoughts of smoking. Not to say I would light something and put it in my mouth - that will never happen as long as I live. Just the thoughts are so evil, I wish they would just go away. Did any one else struggle with this? And will it ever go away?? Lastly, I notice people who smoke way more than ever before. However, I am not fantasizing or being jealous - I actually feel bad. I mean if this is what my body is going through to get rid of the chemicals, I can't imagine what the body has to go through when inhaling the chemicals all day long. Just wondering if anyone else struggled around this point... The teenage hormonal changes/what feels like an eternity/yo-yo/roller coaster/hair pulling frustration month? lol Any tips? (Sorry if this is repeated thread) Needed to vent :) Blessed be S

Thinking of you today in Ottawa! Sending prayers and positive thoughts your way! (Strong and Free we will remain) Hope you are staying safe my Canadian sista!

Nope!

Quitting has gave me a great jolt of self confidence, something I feel is clouded whilst smoking. Meeting great supportive people whom understand what you are going through, even though I am only surpassing my one month I also feel I am way less stressed. :)

Happy Tuesday! a big fat NOPE!

NOPE

Nope :)
