Yes the NM lurks behind many corners ready to latch on -- but the more you NOPE and not submit to the NM the less power it has and the more it disappears. Be strong as you are and be ever vigilant -- you can do this!!!

For me it was wanting that first deep inhale of the cigarette, it was a strong desire. Certain activities that I had tied to smoking would set that crave off. I used Jillar's Air Cigarette to combat that crave (that and a cold juice) and that really worked!!!

Trying to get thru all the familiar times that I would smoke -- The times that I "enjoyed" smoking and getting that type of thinking out of my head, that I really could be a non smoker!!!! As well as much of what is said thru out this thread!!!

I had known for sometime that I had needed to quit. Then a long talk with my doctor and then another long talk with her nurse over the phone (all based on test's and symptoms) that I had really needed to quit. I thought long and hard and realized that the doctor and nurse were being really concerned not just preaching from the normal medical standpoint that smoking is bad for you but really concerned about my health and well being. I told the nurse I would think about it and discuss on my appointment in the next couple of weeks. Well about a week from that appointment I woke up in the morning had a cigarette and saw I only had a couple left --- instead of going to the store I though about the doctor/nurse talks and did not go to the store -- have not smoked since. Needless to say when the doctor asked a week later about what I needed to quit I told her that I was a week into my quit (ever since that day my doctor and I have had a much better relationship and is always on the look out for medical problems more so now). That was also the day I found this sight and stuck to it to educate myself on all things to do with quitting and feel that it was a true life saver. Anyway kind of long statement but it is what it is and I am proud to say I am a non-smoker -- something I thought I would never be able to say!!!!!

Great job on not caving in. I too had a similar experience with almost a year in (during the holiday season) -- it was scary and I just hunkered down and focused on the quit, I did not want to waste a year of hard work and it has been worth it ever since. Just keep thinking that you will be on the Lido Deck very soon -- Congrats!!!!

Awesome job on the 8 month mark abbynormal -- you are going strong now. You had better take some time today and pat yourself on the back and celebrate -- you deserve it!!!

Roark I went thru the same thing -- trying to fill that hole up. I walk more now, goof with the grandchildren more, don't worry about where I am going (don't have to plan the cigarette time and place and that is just awesome, something you don't realize at first). It does get better and you find your new normal even with the things you did before. Congrats on the quit so far!!!!
