another stressful moment conquered

i had my first car crash last night :(

nothing serious, everyone ok and even my car was ok (shame i cant say the same for the other persons car but then it was her fault lol)

....but it just occurred to me - not even until i logged onto here aswell - that despite being very shaken and stressed i didnt once think about having a ciggie. the other driver got out the car with a fag in her mouth and all i thought of was "she probably wasnt concentrating cos she was too busy smoking/lighting up hence why she drove into me"

so although no one wants to be in these unfortunate positions its just one more thing that proves to me life can be perfectly normal and you can cope perfectly well without the aid of cigarettes

keep up the good work everyone! you can do it !

Thank goodness every one is okay!

How dreadful..........but how brilliant! Yet another situation dealt with and not a sniff of a ciggie in sight.

If you can deal with that without cigarettes then you have really cracked it!

If feels great doesn't it.

See every "stressful" situation as an opportunity to learn and it makes every situation much easier to deal with!

Hi ld

So sorry to hear you had a bad day, just proves that it all does get better and we do eventually start to think less and less of ciggys.

Sorry to hear about the crash, main thing is no injuries - bet nobody ever thought of that one, how will I cope without a fag next time I have a crash:eek: Maybe the women on here did though (I may regret saying that:p)

Yet ANOTHER reason why smoking is so dangerous :p Hope you're feeling alright after the crash. Big pat on the back for dealing with the situation as a NON-SMOKER :)

john... you may be in a considerable amount of pain very soon hahaha
