September 18, 201411 yr I'm an emotional mess and when that happened I tend to crave cigarettes. Close to caving in. I can handle being at my smoking (no longer drinking) neibhbor and her visiting me but NOW I'm having flashbacks and emotional a wreck and I do not want to to blow my quit although 11 September isn't really the best quitdate (that's an excuse you see) with 9/11/2001I feel like screaming, cried my eyes out and although I have my one week anniversery, I 'd almost go to the store for those bloody fags. Writing is good. Keeps me occupied from smoking.
September 18, 201411 yr Hey Evelyn. 1 week is great. Caving is always an option - unless you decide it isn't. So - decide with me, tight now, right here. "Today I will NOT smoke. NOT ONE PUFF EVER....just for today" Post it back to me. You can absolutely do this Evelyn.
September 18, 201411 yr One week everlyn.....you've done wonderful....stay strong..... Deep breath through this......you know you can do this.....you want to quit..... Smoking is not on the table .....remind yourself how much you want this..... We're with you.....
September 18, 201411 yr Evelyn - 11/9 is a great quit date, and don't let your mind play tricks on you otherwise - Nancy just posted this earlier, and I thought it was brilliant http://www.quittrain.com/topic/2719-think-you-need-just-one/ recommend that you read it if you haven't already! You don't need to smoke Evelyn - just for today, but you don't need to smoke.
September 18, 201411 yr 'Atta girl. Given that we are not smoking today - what else is on the agenda? I know you are a big Dr Who fan - so what is the verdict on Peter Capaldi as the new Doctor?
September 18, 201411 yr Write write write. Play with your SMOKE FREE Pigs. Tuck yourself up in bed for a good nap or early bedtime. Walk around your neighborhood. Go visit a non smoking person who might be lonesome and bring some flowers or grasses you found for a bouquet. It is late afternoon...day will be over soon. Tomorrow a different day
September 18, 201411 yr Author Am in my bed going to read a book. My neighbor surprised me with a visit but I didn't ask cigarettes
