    Feeling deeply off (collective grief, I think). No off switch, minimal awareness, and even less discipline around eating right now. Considering it a great day if I manage to shower, dress and care for my teeth. Pretty sure some of it is due to not being in the cigarette~task loop anymore. HURRAY! and of course some of it is due to Stay at Home/Covid-19 safety practices. To spend just a moment here... I used to punctuate my day with smoking. Could measure many things by the number of smokes I had. I was pretty dedicated to smoking between tasks, so find I am getting less done. Subconsciously avoiding craving triggers? Lazy? Don't really think I want to substitute something for that particular punctuation....although a big glass of water or challenge exercise would be a great substitute....hmmm... On the plus side , I am hydrating lots, walking lots (3ish miles today and Mani cat did them , too...he's exhausted), enjoying being with my marvelous man (glad he likes me even when I have the personality and attitude of a wet dishrag), planning and planting food and flower garden. on the covid thing.... some of this stuff is just ridiculous to me. This is where my fatalistic and always see the bad side magnified works to my advantage. I stopped going out March 1st. e have very limited contact of people on the property we live on. Some of "the next logical step" things seem so basic and that people are not doing or oblivious has me awestruck. off to watch the nightly scare (news). Best of all to each of you. Love hard on the people in your life. Do the things you have never done. I am learning to play happy birthday on the harmonica.
  5. You've got this Sunshine. Not sure what will feel helpful as the nicotine leaves your body. I slept for a day or so. Drinking lots of water and juice. Playing cards. Glad you are FREE!

    Still delighted to be FREE. Can't spend too much time pondering the choices of the past. The consequences and results of all my past choices will reveal or heal as I THRIVE on....with all the opportunities life brings. The teeth and gum pain is such that in normal times I would head to the dentist. Being in far from normal times, I am choosing to self treat with many salt water rinses and using the water pik with hydrogen peroxide mix. Cravings are few and vary in duration (never more than a few minutes) and really feel more like celluar memory of what I am "supposed to do" at certain times or in certain circumstances. Different thinks and things to do now. EZPZ as Sarge says. Scared. grateful for the people here on QT. I feel closer and more connected to many of you than most anyone else right now. Thanks everyone for being here learning, healping, gaming, chatting.... really appreciate your presence and gifts more than I can explain. Am in touch with close friends and family, too, ... feeling disconnected and scared for many of them... and many of us. Stay safe people. Be kind to yourself and each other. I wish there were a way for me to safely help in a different manner than only staying home. I hope I see my parents and siblings again. DEEPLY GRATEFUL none of these scary maudlin thoughts ignite the desire to smoke. O yeah... I don't fing smoke. happy laughing!!!!
  13. Glad you got it and glad you're leaving it... don't do the stuff that hurts. Glad your walk and flexibility things work . So sorry you're routinely in pain. Do you practice mindfulness at all? I have heard from people who have continuous pain that their mindfulness practices bring a relief of sorts.

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
