Stress!!

[Hope48]

today has been the day from hell!!!

But I got through it without a Puff Im so proud of myself!

Yes,I thought about it but sanity won the day!! at least I know now that having a cigarette is not the answer.

good for you Hope, i think that is a major trigger just been wiped out!!!

The ability to be able to say that a ciggie is NOT the answer is a major step.

Well Done.

I don't appear to have had a stressful day/period since I started my quit yet, previous to quitting, every day seemed stressful! Weird!

Glad you got through the stressful day without giving in, that must have felt like a real achievement for you!

Stress is one of the biggest triggers for most ex-smokers - so very well done.

I saw it as a challenge when I had to move house only 2 weeks into my quit, and yes I had a really rough day with cravings-a-plenty but at the end of it I felt like I could walk on water... such a great feeling to come through heavy stress while quitting and still be a non-smoker.

Congratulations, you are doing really well.

Thats great to hear that you got through a stressy day. When i get stressed I just ask my self if having a smoke is going to make the situation any better and of course the answer is No so i dont bother.

Well Done xx
