September 26, 201412 yr I watched a crime docu... got triggered and scared. Kept romanticizing a fag, but my friend called and I cried on her shoulder. Hate it when I KNOW I shouldn't watch something because it's too haevy and don't zapp away.I'm back on track, after my crying, got my confidence back and I DID NOT robbed my neighbor of a pack of fags...See these kinds triggers are tricky for me, emotional pain, grief or hurt.... or flashbacks. But somehow God heard my cry, and my friend called me just in time. I didn't post an SOS because I posted one yesterday but THIS MESSAGESays ONE thing for all quitters, new or old: BUY TIME, SIT IT OUT... DON'T FALL FOR THE ROMANTIC EXCUSES AND WE CONQUER THE CRAVING.
September 26, 201412 yr Hi sweetheart.... Your learning about your triggers all the time....be on your guard.....switch off quick.....watch something else.... Your doing just fine.....well done....
September 26, 201412 yr Good for you! Please, don't be afraid to post an SOS too, even if you already posted one earlier in the day - post 10 SOS's if you need to! ;)
September 26, 201412 yr Author My anniverseries are tricky moments too; I was taught I could never do anything good so when I'm celebrating an anniversery of my quit I always tend to act as in an selfforfilling prohpecy.
September 26, 201412 yr A lot of good things are coming your way, Evelyn. Quitting smoking gives us so much inner strength and confidence. You are going to be able to change a lot within yourself as a result. Please be kind to yourself. You deserve Beauty and Goodness and Kindness. I appreciate how you are reaching out to help people, this is beautiful and shows your Goodness is coming through. Quit watching scary stuff ! I can't even watch the news, not very much of it for sure. So, I don't expose myself to that terror/horror and avoid as much Ugly as I can. Music, Art, Nature, your fabulous Pigs...there is plenty of good things to indulge in. Thinking all good for you, Love, S P.S. You post anything, anytime, Evelyn. There is no such thing as 'too many sos's' . We all really care about you and want to help in any way we can.
September 26, 201412 yr Agreed with S and Action, Post as many SOS's as you need to. There are no limitations on those!
