Leaning towards health

I need to address this, OMC. The 'pleasure' you speak of was not real. It was only feeding the addiction. The satisfaction was not real. It was relieving the crave by feeding the addiction. These are the basic tenets of understanding nicotine addiction ! How Nicotine Works The 'Pleasure' you speak of was a big fat LIE. Nicotine gangstered the pleasure receptors in our brain. Claiming them back provides real pleasure and phenomenal personal power. Nothing sucks about quitting smoking. Nothing.

I loathe Yuri.

Chianti certainly helps me, lol ! and Chantix helps in 'other' ways.

Quitting smoking may trigger all sorts of unfamiliar as well as familiar feelings. Add this to an emotional time of year and well....you can expect feeling different than usual. You are a new you ! Once the quit settles down you will grow into your newness with grace and joy. Do not worry. Your 'happy' will return. Be kind with yourself and lavish rewards. S

Give yourself rewards for every thought/crave/trigger conquered. Check out this thread, Red Flags. You don't smoke ! You need to be completely clear and stalwart in your choice to put your addiction to Sleep. As time goes by smokey thoughts fade into oblivion but, they do this so subtlety that it is hard to track.

^^^^^^^ I see the cheating sticks are into self flagellation today, tee hee hee. and now back to our regularly festive programming

How can you say that and submit me to the full on horror show of Cliff Richard. GAH ! Your town sounds awfully (ahem) nice, Mighty One, but, I think I will stay put and bask in the hoodoo of Art Neville and the Brothers. Please know I have a small 'collection' of alligator, cat, mice, rat, goat, dog, pig and human teeth and assortment of potions etc. I may have the opportunity to put them to use. Be good, bebe. Be good. When in doubt, be exceptionally good. Love, Saz

Exactly that is why I still post my (rare) moments of addiction flare up. And working remedies. To some it may come across as 'wow, is that still an issue' or, 'maybe thats a bit overdone...?' But I feel like I need to utilize these moments and keep breaking chains as long as they present themselves. I see my second year as a chance to put everything to practice i learned the first year. It serves me well, I really still feel better every day, noticing changes in the way I handle things. Smoking is nowhere near tempting anymore, and when I do have smokey thoughts, I instantly recognise them as neuro pathway patterns. Lilly and others, keep going and keep making yourself aware of whats happening. Dont fall for the attachment trap. This will all be in the past somewhere soon. Excellent post, M'Life. The life lessons learned from quitting and the techniques used in putting the addiction to sleep continue to serve us in many ways as the years go by.
