A very big congrats to you, overcome!!! Well done, proud of u ❤️

Thank you Jordan…I do feel a bit better aside from this stupid anxiety. I apologized and loved on her, the way she’s looking at me is like “ma, wtf u ok?” But she’s cuddling rn w me so I guess she’s not too mad at me. I really try to be patient w her and most times I am, this one got to me. I took her on the deck outside, she went crazy. Came back in and finished the toilets, washed my hands and now just hanging on the couch till I catch my breath and I calm down a bit. Then maybe a walk w her up and down my long driveway. sorry guys I just needed to vent. And the thought of not having a cig after all that bs was the tipping point.

I’m literally screaming, crying. It’s too much, I don’t even know what “it” is. I was cleaning my bathroom, came out and my puppy peed on the floor, tracked it all over clean floors, jumped on the clean couch, and I lost it. I feel bad I screamed at her. I feel so frustrated and sad. And also hyperventilating/short of breath idk from anxiety I guess. I want off this ride, I know having one or a million cigs won’t help anything but I feel like it will. Help

On and off wanting one most of the day…not even one, I want like a lot, give me the whole pack lol. My garage where I used to smoke smells like semi good to me (my dryer’s in the garage so once in a while I go in there). Ugh. Trying to let the cravings come ahead and not try and ignore, they say to do that, no? But also telling myself how I do not want to go back to the slavery, the difficulty breathing, I want to live smoke free and also for a potential baby in the future etc. I’m trying I really am. Why is it harder some days and some days easier-ish? I don’t want to give in to these addictive thoughts, the junkie thoughts. I know that’s what they are but then the devil on the other shoulder is telling me how good it’ll be. I hate this!

Hey guys, good morning ☀️ I woke up today wanting a cig, more than the other days, although I really haven’t had *bad cravings*, seems like more triggers are coming out. I guess the longer I go not smoking, the more my mind’s trying to mess w me like “ok, ha did good kid, now let’s celebrate w a smoke” lol wackadoo. I know this isn’t an sos but I think I “romance” the cig….and after I read that great post yest on romancing the cig 🤷‍♀️. I also have been putting off some types of housework bc of fear of what’ll I do in between. I can do dishes, laundry no problem but the toilets, mopping….those are “bigger” jobs in my head. Idk. Anyone else get bigger pangs after the first week?
