Yay!!! Party time!!! Well done Hope2Nope!!!

Wow I am almost at the 1 month quit experience! And it is.. eh yeah.. eventful to say the least. My first week was an awesome high, my second week was a mix of coughs, colds, and mixed feelings.. Then the germany trip, week 3, that has set me back.. the ads and the availability got into my head, the romancing started again.. emotions flared up and I have been trapped inside my head. I couldn't stop crying two days ago.. I almost convinced myself this quiting thing was not something I was strong enough for (-yes *ding ding ding* all the red flags there) I had to force myself to pledge... but it got easier and I can actually socialize again and tell everyone I am sti here, on the train... The only by-product now is that I have been so tense that my muscles are hurting like mad.. so I need to go and get a massage... which my autistic brain hates! (Like dentists and hairdressers.. or shopping in general.... )

Welcome aboard Old man Coffee! Congratulations on your 18 day quit!!! Well done!

I am just nodding my head through all the posts. It will get better! And, I won't lie, it will feel like it's getting worse at times (it doesn't, but addiction will tell you it is) Soak up all the cheers, words and tips here and you will feel stronger and not so alone. I am just ahead of ya, in a few weeks you will be on my spot, and if I can do it you can too!!! Stick to the forum, stay in the now!! You are doing an awesome job!

Wow, I am on vacation in Frankfurt and compared to the Netherlands it's smoke country. They sell it everywhere and have ads everywhere you look. It's insane really. There are two cig machines in the hotel lobby.. and yeah it's even harder to stay persistant and to not let go of the rope. Really happy I have such an understanding and trustworthy partner. He is my rock.. and he doesn't mind me talking through the cravings alot more now than it was at home. Talking about unsafe zones.. Germany is one... But! I keep on hanging in there! I will!!!! Nope!!!

Nope!

Drinking german beer and eating a schnitzel now yay!
