Congratulations on 1 month Pilgrim!  That is so great!  You are doing really well, just keep doing what you are doing. Onward to month 2.

 

[Pilgrim]

Thank you QuittingGirl! I've relapsed a few times around the 2 month mark... but I'm feeling resolved this time.

[Minnie Mouse]

Congrats!  One month is AWESOME!  Keep it up!

Congrats, on 1 month quit. You're doing great and don't forget to remind yourself daily that you deserve this. You deserve to be smoke free and happy. You are stronger than the addiction.

[Reciprocity]

Congrats @Pilgrim! 1 month is awesome.

Let's get month 2 done and remember what happened around that point on previous quits to thwart your efforts & what you plan to do differently this time around to succeed. We're all pulling for you 

 

[Pilgrim]

Thanks for the encouragement everyone!

@Pilgrim.... your on track to make this your forever quit. Well done!!

 

[DenaliBlues]

A belated WOO HOO… Well done on your first month! The hardest withdrawal days are behind you and you’ve built your foundation. Onward and upward!

 

[QuittingGirl]

@Pilgrim I know it's not easy and this is my 2nd and last time quitting because who wants to go through withdrawal again!!  Certainly not me!! Ack!! No way!! Twice was enough!! Just take it one day at a time because that is really all you can do at this point.  What methods are you using to help you stay focused and with withdrawal symptoms?

One month is fantastic! Congratulations!!

Thanks again for all your support and encouragement, gang. It's been a rough few days and today in particular I found myself craving a smoke more than once. I had to remind myself that it won't help my situation... especially after I've come so far. However you, me, we are suffering, putting nicotine into our bodies ultimately packs more suffering on top of what's already there... all we have to do is remember what it was like. Not that first exciting cigarette, but all the ones that follow... being completely addicted and dependent on getting that regular dose of nicotine. Being a slave to it. Remembering that state of existence keeps me resolute in maintaining my quit.
