Thanks for replying!
Hi zozie, i had a good weekend glad to here you have too, well done on getting through another weekend smoke free, we all proud of you the non smoker keep it up you doing great
Thanks Josivi, you are too!
Its lovely when people reply and you feel the non smoking love.
Was feeling a bit low there for a moment, then i looked ourside at the monsoon type weather and felt quite smug that i no longer need to go and stand in the driving rain and cold and everything to have a fag.... hooorah!
Part of me kid of misses it cos its a break from the desk though... may go for a wander instead.... (not near the canteen) LOL! xxx
congrats to you zozie.... its one heck of an achievement. You should be incredibly proud of yourself.
Thanks Magic, its really spurring me on today that people are taking the time to reply to me.
I'm feeling a bit low today, and while i dont want to smoke, the nicotine monster is being a bit of an arse. and keeps prodding me with things and making me cry, while i dont want to sound like a big wet sop, i really feel a bit alone.... rats! :mad:
I'm sure i will feel better later, i keep forgetting that i am still in the early stages of quit and beat myself up a bit fr not coping so well sometimes, really though i'm not superhuman, i may try swimming after work, and make some time for me...
Thanks for making me feel less lonely without my mate the nicodemon.

Hey no worries, sorry you are feeling a little down. You are ahead of me in your quit so im a novice in your shadow gwasshoppa!
All i can say to you is to try to enjoy the cravings. I know it sounds mental but it works for me. Im not saying it will work for you but hey, give it a try, you never know. I actually look forward to them coming because i can "see" my nemisis as this is how its manifests itself - everytime they do surface it reminds me of exactly what it is im leaving behind - the trap, the slavery, the cost, the smell etc.... i can honestly say i dont get any anymore.
I wish you all the luck in the world and please never feel alone. There are millions of people still smoking wishing they werent, you however, are not smoking. So, you are the envy of millions!
cheers
Well done Zozie.
I'm on day 22 and I too get those flat moments. I'm deliriously grateful to not be smoking but at the same time, at times, feel a sense of loss for what I 'see' as something that was uniquely mine - not the wife's, daughter's, etc, just selfish me. I've read lots of accounts from ex's who feel the same way so I'm buoyed up by the certainty that this will pass.
Come on - start the day again right now - I am!
Mornin' all.
Thanks Magic & York,
Feeling much better today, i think i must have been having an off day, and my resolve was strengthened by you good people! hoorah!
The off days are getting lesser and lesser and all of that pent up angst was put to good use by going swimming! Managed the eqivalent of 1/4 of a kilometre, good for me and would have been impossible with clogged lungs..... pretty chuffed, onward and upward and replacing cigs with exercise to combat that pent up tension/frustration. it has to be a winner.
This forum and all of you guys really help! Its nice to have kindred spirits on here when the rest of the world seems a bit oblivious to the extent of the achievements.
Keep on keeping off em!
