December 9, 201411 yr Hey Rowly Dec 28 post is where you might find some motivation. Stick with it buddy. The odd test comes along in the early days - you just push on through it. There is no just one Rowly.
December 9, 201411 yr You do not want just one......breathe deep everything that happens in life is going to happen with or without cigarettes it is much better without (I know you know that) Go for a run or a walk or take 10 minutes close your eyes and take some deep breathes repeatedly......drink a cold glass of water or maybe some juice or pop. Whatever you do do not smoke and please check back in here ..........you have got this........
December 9, 201411 yr Author Still here and still smoke free. Can't stay online though but will check in when possible.
December 9, 201411 yr Great news.....your stronger than you think......that nicotine monster....blaaa rubbish.... Well done rowly....you won that round....
December 9, 201411 yr My friend you know the urges come and go, and sometimes they go on for days. But if you breathe through it and Nope it to death, do some exercises, eat, or whatever, you get through. So here you are, you did not smoke, and you are stonger for it. :)
December 9, 201411 yr You are stronger then that one!! You just don't smoke that one ya hear, cause all it's buddies come flooding after and you SOOOO don't want them too!! You have not smoked so many times, this is just another time. Pleased you're busy, what ya doing?? Can you get a run or a power walk in there somewhere- I know you like exercise and it kicks these craves to the kerb the quickest. x
December 9, 201411 yr Still here and still smoke free. Can't stay online though but will check in when possible. and that's how it's done! One crave, one hurdle at a time. You will be stronger for it. :) good job Rowly....and good job everyone for being here...that's what the Quit Train is all about!
December 9, 201411 yr This is the time to step up to "Badass" status.... Make sure you tell this craving to F UCK OFF and get on with your good life.
December 9, 201411 yr I'm late to the party but I am so proud of you for staying smoke free. A craving is not a command to smoke. Wait it out and it will go. Smokers don't have just one. One was never enough and it never will be. In 20 minutes, maybe sooner, from the time you put it out you'll want another.
December 10, 201411 yr You know why you won today? Because you're smarter than nicotine. :) Very true. Rowly, it may not always be easy, but not much in life is. It will always be worth it. Well done staying tough, you handled this just the right way.
