(is my thinking) (((Tracey))) You are a strong woman and you can get through anything....
June 1, 201412 yr You can get through this, Tracey. Dealing with this king of stuff is very hard but you can do it without smoking. I'm glad that you're here and posting and you're 100% correct that there will always be emotional or crappy things in life to use as an excuse to smoke but we know better and recognize those thoughts for what they really are - junkie thinking and nothing else. You're going to be just fine. Some tough days ahead but better ones in between and definitively down the road. Hang in there.
June 1, 201412 yr I have always thought you had lost the plot...;-) Tough times Tracey. You are doing it right, don't rush. I'm sure you will get there. Big hugs.
June 1, 201412 yr Part time anything never gets the attention it needs to succeed Full commitment is required for raising vegetables. Relationships need more. Sit down and make a list or good and bad points. See which list is longer. Smoking is not part of this Will I Am
June 1, 201412 yr Sorry Tracey, to hear what you are going through. I have no doubt Though, that you will pull through with flying colors. You quit smoking, therefore, you can do anything!
June 1, 201412 yr So sorry ((((Tracey)))) Its such a shame that sometimes making changes to improve your life can be so painful :( I know you will get through it and will be smiling soon.
June 1, 201412 yr Some say everything happens for a reason, even if we don't see it yet. I agree. :-)
June 1, 201412 yr (((Tracey))) making life choices and changes are tough and scary, but one thing I do know through all the things I have encountered in life, you will survive it, you will become stronger because of it and one day you will realise that its the best thing you ever did, never look back my lovely believe in yourself and do what you have to do for you xx
June 1, 201412 yr hang in there sweet Tracey, Please know you can post or PM with us any time. I am glad that despite these goings on you are committed to staying smoke free as you know smoking will not help. xoxo
June 1, 201412 yr Firstly, hugs tracey, tough times for sure. Yes you will survive it, yes it will make you stronger, no you won't smoke - sometimes people are just tougher than even they believe, you are one of those people. I wouldn't dare try and guide, you make your own life decisions and absolutely right too. I will say this though, once the guilt and grief is over the sheer relief from walking away from a toxic relationship is immense. Hang onto that through the grief. xx
June 1, 201412 yr Tracey... This sounds like it will be hard. But you are super tough and you will make the best decision for you, I just know it. We are your internet family and we are here for you! Love you lots, and big hugs!
June 2, 201412 yr Mine isn't mean to be a break up thread, just spend more time or expect it to not be good. But broke is broke sometimes, its knowing when to move on that is the hard part. Three wives- I never know, they tell me!
June 4, 201412 yr Aw sweetie, I'm so sorry you have to go through this....as hard as it is now, i know you will come out stronger on the other side... lov you hun {{{{HUGS}}}}
