Hiya, well today is Day 36 (I think that's right Carolrose?)
It's sunny, the air smells nice, and I don't smoke
Am still "missing" my kickstart fag(s) first thing but not in the sense I want to smoke - just dopier than usual. But the extra time in bed is well worth it!!
And I'm not missing the taste of burning paper in my mouth and nose (dunno if they changed what goes in them, or if my brain cottoned on?) turning out of the wind so the smoke didn't go all over me, having to go outside in the rain, dark, cold, and the annoying habit i had of getting smoke in my eyes :eek:
Did get pretty stressed yesterday, and while i leant on the NRT the thought of having a fag wasn't appealing which I'm taking as a huge positive 'cos stress used to mean very smoky Gemma :eek:
Onwards :cool::cool:
Well done Gemma
and try to avoid leaning too hard on the NRT if you can,only when you get mega stressed :confused:
For you I think yes it is the not smoking,sure;but also there is a new level to achieve which is no smoking and very little leaning on NRT or the handmouth thing for support,and that is where you need to concentrate sweetheart over the next 4-6 weeks-try to wean yourself away from that side cos you do not want this NRT thing to persist for too long . xx
I know what you mean Max, basically I want to close the smoking chapter of my life ASAP!!
But as you know it's very hard for me so while I use the NRT as little as I can I'm trying not to stress it too much - this *has* to be my last quit, so I want to get well settled into not smoking before attacking the nicotine bit too hard, if that makes sense?
Am not going to be using more than I have to though, or for any longer than I need to!!
Oooh and I don't want to swap smoking for chewing and sucking either, lol xx
