Sorry about your TIA Chris 😞 I've had a few people who have had one and they feel so much better after getting the carotid artery cleared. Glad there was no permanent damage!

Congratulations on five months quit Tammy, I hope you're doing something special to celebrate today

Congratulations Joe, what a great quit

That's great news @sandy1, and six pieces even, wow We'd love to see them if you get the chance

You ARE doing good, in fact, you're doing GREAT! And you're also not a weakling, you've had a 40 year addiction to smoking and it takes time to break that habit. That's why one of our tools is the One Year Commitment. I took it as did many, many others. It's pinned to the top of this forum if you'd like to check it out

You're in WTF week wantsit and now you know why we call it that. There's something about the 3's, 3 days, weeks, months, that get most of us. Just power through like you did today because it will get better

Maybe now that winter's coming we'll see beazel more?

Thanks @notsmokinjo, yesterday was ok but today not so good. Sure hoping for the rain, looks like Wednesday we'll get some

Yes busy is good parsley, it'll help keep your mind off the craves. Thanks for checking back in and yay you for keeping that awesome quit

How you doing parsley? Hopefully a little better now. There's something about the threes that seems to trigger a lot of us so just power through like it was day 1 because it will get better, I promise

Wasn't beazel stopping in a nice surprise?

What worked for me redemption3 was tricking my brain into thinking it was getting the real thing by smoking my JAC (jillars air cigarette). Just pretend you're holding a real cigarette in your fingers and then go through the motions of "smoking" it. It worked great for me. Some people use cut straws, pens etc. Maybe try that?

Great post kdad, and that's what worked for me too

YAY Lilly! you are through Hell week! And like stated above each week will get easier and easier with a few bad days scattered here and there. BUT we will help you past those bad days Have a great relaxing day, I'm super proud of you

Hi Sandy, welcome to quittrain First, congratulations on half a year quit, that's awesome As far as not having any motivation to do anything, I can totally relate. What works for me is as Jane said above, set your mind to doing one project a day. I've been doing that since I quit and although my circumstances may be different than yours, it's been working well. And it never hurts to get a checkup after we quit. If for no other reason than to hear all the kudos on quitting
