Hello everyone ... im in the process of hopefully going smoke free. Im approaching day 6 of cold turkying it . Would Just like to share my experiences over the last few days. Well i first started smoking as a method of dealing with romantic hurt. And really since then every time i feel a negative emotion i smoke as a method of dealing with it. However i realised that this wasnt working for me in the long run , so i realised i had to quit smoking. As ive been going through this journey , i realised there are two battles. One with the physical aspects and one with the physlogical. So as i mentioned i used to smoke to deal with negative emotions , this i guess you could regard as my physlogical addiction. But after the first couple of days of quiting, i began to realise that feelings quickly change. At times you may be down and at other times you may be up. So what i would say is when you are down , remember be patient , listen to an inspiring song or read an inspiring quote but before you know it, youll be up. Just be Patient!. With regards to the physical withdrawels, i have had headaches , been very irritable at times and been unable to focus. But with every day they have got better and better. I see it as my body cleaning itself and making sure i remember how hard it is to quit and hence never smoke again. Anyways something which helps me when i get close to breaken point is thinking if i had the choice would i be a smoker or a non smoker. and i think my new buddies here would agree with me it is an easy answer. So if you be patient battle through the hard times before you know it we will be a non smokers (hopefully :)) .
