Well after blowing my 50 day quit a few weeks ago, I restarted the Champix and have set my quit date for Sunday. I am looking forward to it in a lot of ways, but in others I am just as scared as I was the first time around :eek: So I am trying to think about the things I enjoyed about not smoking, and to stay as positive as I can, but it isn't easy. I am dreading those first 3 days again lol but it has to be done.
Worst thing is I won't be able to log in here very much as I can't top up my internet at the moment. Oh well.
So somebody wish me luck, please?
Zoe xx

Yeah I guess the thing I am trying to think about the most is the sense of freedom, instead of thinking about being deprived. I had it before and I can have it again
Ready made target then Zoe. Fifty days at least or the hit squad will be after you. You will do it, you know what caused you to light up again so be extra vigilant this time. Don't like wishing people luck. David
All the best for Sunday Zoe - I think mixed feelings in the pre-quit period are absolutely normal, but you'll soon be reminded how great it feels not to be enslaved - and you KNOW you can do it!
I wish you all the luck in the world Zoe and if you can just try to remember the bad feeling doesn't last long really compared to your future health xx
Thanks so much everyone, you really are a fabulous bunch :cool:
I would never even have had a quit in the first place without you all, and am looking forward to my new one.
Grumpie, I am in the library at the mo which is closed on Sunday, but will post if I can find a puta somewhere. Otherwise, I will read Allen Carr to get me through.
And Karri, I know how much you want to quit really, otherwise you wouldn't be here, and you will quit too. We all do it in our own time, in our own ways, and your day will come. Meanwhile, I am just thinking freedom, which is what Allen Carr tells us to think.
Oops, my library session is up in 4 mins, so gotta scoot
Well it looks as if Team Zoe are out in force to cheer you on!
So glad to see your new day one on the horizon - and you just remember all those lessons you learned from your last quit.
In particular - no crap that life can throw at you will be made better by a fag. :rolleyes:
Let the Champix do its job (as you know it will) and in no time at all, you will be celebrating another 50 days. Hold on to as much positive mental attitude as you can muster so that you can recapture those days and weeks when you were really enjoying being an ex-smoker. You know that you have nothing to lose and everything to gain - we are all hoping that 2012 is going to be your year, so you need to start it without this stupid habit pulling you back.
And beg, borrow or steal some computer time, because we are all waiting to hear how it's going for you!
Yes good luck Zoe! Good to see you back:). You did so well before in what seems like very adverse circumstances. I know the times that I nearly slipped up (and actually did slip up :o) were all the result of a stressful occurrences and sounds like you've had many of them. The illusion of a ciggie relieving stress is so powerful even if you know its only an illusion its reeeallly hard to resist. Hope you get back online soon and some good things come your way in "real" life too
Tomorrow you do whatever you have to do...... sleep, hide, shout, bawl, get stubborn, get "headstrong", get drunk, (ehhh ... maybe not ) just DO NOT smoke aaannnnnd get your ass into that library Mon. morn and tell us about your non-smoking day.... OR ELSE WE WILL WANT TO KNOW WHY ... Ha Ha.
