Many, many people aren't successful on their first try or even more tries. There's no shame in trying and falling back unless you just stay there and you don't make a new commitment to quit once you've gathered yourself together again. The key is NOT to give up trying and you must learn from your mistakes and think about how you will make better decisions next time you find yourself in a simlar situation. When you're a smoker you're addicted to nicotine so yes ... throw away all smoking material so they're not within easy reach. Understand that what quitting smoking actually involves is breaking that link in your mind between smoking & all you're daily situations. That takes quite awhile and a lot of repetition before you are mentally over relying on smokes time and time again each & every day. Firstly you need to make that unbreakable commitment to yourself to quit. Then take things just one day at a time as you fight those cravings to smoke. Trust me, that intense craving for a smoke lessens over time. Staying smoke free each & every day MUST be absolute top of mind in order not to cave in to the cravings. Quitting is a marathon, not a sprint. Treat it that way and be patient, one day at a time!In honor of "the ides of March" I say ... Nope!
Nope!I don't know what a pack of smokes goes for around here now but it was $12.50 when I quit 7 years ago so I imagine the cost is a lot higher now for sure! Yet one of many benefits to quitting Doreen, the seas were very calm for most of our recent trip. You would have been fine I think. No motion at all could be felt. But yes, I can understand your concern. Nothing worse than bein sea sick!Cheapest smokes I ever saw while on vacation was in St. Martin. $19.00/carton for U.S. cigs. I remember thinking; Wow! If I was still smoking, I'd be all over that! Absolutely true!Yes. 9 days then 12 days for a total of 21 days plus we spent a couple of days in Lauderdale before the cruise as the flights were cheaper that way. We can't do 7 day cruises any more. Too much hassle getting there and back for such a short time plus, longer duration cruises tends to attrcat a more "mature" crowd so fewer booze-cruisers and screaming kids We also avoid Christmas & March Break cruises like the plague (OMG!!!) Longest we've done was 37 days. Buenois Aries to Fort Lauderdale. East coast of Brazil, including Rio when Carnival was on. Then up the Amazon 900 miles to Manaus Brazil. Amazing cruise!! Best ever was a 10 day French Polyneia cruise on a small ship (Paul Gauguin) South Pacific is incredible 😍
