Hello fellow quitters,
I smoked my last cigarette 18th March, so over 2 months now. I should feel more proud of myself than I do really. For a year or so before I quit I had failed on the first 3 days so many times I believed I was imprisoned in the addiction for life, but here I am.
It's been a slow, time dilated, not too easy 2 months but I've never thought I would actually smoke one in that time, even when it was nagging me a lot. That is, until the last week...
The last week there has been about 3 occasions when I felt like I might actually smoke one. You know that thing that happens where the nicotine talk in your head starts making logical sense and smoking actually seems like a good idea?
Anyway, I don't want that to happen so I thought I better find some quit buddies to keep me motivated and sane.
Cigarettes stink right? I wouldn't even like one if I did smoke one, right? I'd feel so bad and tricked by nicotine if I did smoke one, right? I don't need them for any reason at all, right? They won't make me feel less depressed, or less stressed, or make my life better in any way, right?. I never even liked them and they are just a nasty dirty little addiction, right?
I already feel better having typed this and saying it out loud makes the nicotine lies sound as crazy as they are. But if anyone wanted to give me a bit of a pep talk and keep me safe for a while longer, I'd really appreciate the help and support right now.
Looking forward to meeting you...
