November 3, 201411 yr Hi Geri, Congratulations on a brave decision. I am only a little ahead of you, so hope we can encourage each other, day by day. My biggest help is saying, one day at a time..... Karen
November 4, 201411 yr Hi Geri! I'm late but congrats on a wonderful decision, one you will never regret. Read as much as you can on the addiction, knowledge was what made the difference for me this quit. Once I realized that there is no such thing as an 'addictive personality' and that pretty much everyone that gives nicotine a go becomes addicted, I realized I was not more addicted than everyone else. And if they could quit, then I could too. We are here to help you, anything you need - all of us have been exactly where you are. This is just the very beginning of a life of freedom for you.
November 4, 201411 yr Don't forget to deep breathe....I used to just go off somewhere on my own and take those deep breaths.... Don't forget your treats....it doesn't matter how small....reward yourself..... What you are achieving is the most rewarding thing you can do.... Keep marchin.....
