Hi, A smoker of 20 odd cigs a day for the past 20 years! Yesterday i decided that today I wouldn't smoke!
Feeling absolutely fine so far
The irony is, someone in my office at work handed me a pen "Breakfree - no smoking day", Thought to myself "Coincidence?" I then ask when no smoking day is...............
TODAY? lol, and here i am checking out this site just because i looked up when it was (mistrusting person that i am!)
Find it really odd that i decided to stop on No smoking day - when i had no idea it was no smoking day!
Ah well - continue on with my niquitin mints! :rolleyes:
Good luck to all who are going for it today!

Thanks for the positive messages of support! Busy old forum this! lol
Though tbh i have found in the past that if i think about "Never smoking again" it drives me to distraction, make me want one!. BUT if i just think "Nah! not today!" then i seems much less of a big thing to do - easier to get my head round, if you will!
And since everyday is "Today!" then it just goes on from there. I never feel like i am denying myself anything huge because it's just for today!
Just my pennies worth - and probably not work for everyone! But just thought I'd share
Yes. Its how I did it. And occasionally if a crave hits, its how I still do it. Choosing not to smoke, just for that 1 min or hour is a good way to stay calm and in control. Thinking into an endless future can just cause the onset of panic! Well done to you for choosing to quit and for choosing this forum!
