Hi All

Just thought i'd let you all know that i've set my give up date for 12th March (national no smoking day). I've seen that many shows of smoke house (recorded for me by my children), read EasyWay.......... so now its time to take the plunge.

So no doubt you'll be reading alot of I NEED HELP!!! :D

But determined to do it this time.

:)

Speak to you all soon .... no doubt on Wednesday..... Well done to you all.

As others on here have told me, try to see stopping smoking as a positive experience. And indeed it is. The benefits of stopping smoking are all good and realistically once we cut thru all the crap, there are no positives for continuing to smoke. Only negatives.

This is what I find the hardest part about quitting. Realising that I am not giving up something that is good in my life. The addiction made me believe I was giving up something I needed just to keep me hooked but of course, we do not need it. That is the nicotine talking.

I can't help but to feel as if I am 'missing out' on something for I have smoked for so long that it became my crutch in life. It was the one 'constant' in my life and I no longer have that and I am left feeing kinda 'open' and 'vulnerable' but, with determination, I am going to beat this addiction and I know that you lot can too!

So, go for it and give that nasty 'ole addiction the boot :D
