Odd feeling on day 33

[nsd_user663_2681]

So I have been pondering this for a few days but it is sooo weird.... I feel like I've never smoked, does that make any sense? I haven't had any craves I've just stopped smoking?? It's so odd, I can't even remember what it was like to smoke lol! Now as a lot of you will know this is not the first attempt I have had and in previous quits I have been climbing the walls but I really and honestly feel nothing this time, absolutely nothing? I must admit it's a very alien and very unnerving...

I have had a drink with hubby been out for dinner etc with no pangs although I have been practically a hermit for the past 33 days just working or spending time with my family... I'm off out Saturday night which could be a trigger but fingers crossed it will be ok I really feel like I've cracked it this time Halleblinkinglujah :Dx

Donna, I think your positivity is showing through, with a sort of internal mode saying just don't smoke.

You are doing a amazing job, just keep pushing on, and how lovely to go out, have fun, come back and know you have not smoked. Brilliant

I agree. I think whatever the switch is in our brains, yours just clicked over on this quit Donna.

Obviously, stay vigilent though. You know from prior experience how sneaky Nic can be.

Have a lovely time on your night out won't you?

Hi Donna, sounds good that aren't craving now. Have a great night out and avoid the smokers - thankfully it's getting too cold to sit outside smoking anyway.

My first few nights out were very hard (I didn't stop going out as you have) but it's ok now I think, still have to be careful though.

Well done Donna!

I know exactly what you mean I do hope this is the one that takes you to the penthouse! You've fought hard for it and completely deserve it

Also out on sat night , tad nervous but I think we can both wake up on Sunday morning without the sneaky 10 pack in our bags here's to month 2!!!! Clink clink! Xx

Hope it stays like that for you Donna, day 30 was my breakthrough day too so let's hope it's the same for you.

I don't feel like I smoked now, but I remember the breathlessness, the smell, and the bad teeth!! It's enough to keep me quit without anything else :eek:

So pleased Donna, I share your feelings as this quit has been completely different for me as well. I am now on day 40 and I have NEVER quit for this long before. Nor with so little remorse lol

I think we are on to it this time...

Fantastic to hear this Donna, I think the brain does click into place, we just have to find the right way to think about it. Sounds like yours has clicked early on or it's probably a mix of everything you've learnt from previous quits, which just goes to show they weren't in vain.

Hi thanks everyone, I am determined this time and I'm sure it's because I have failed so many times before I know the pitfalls now and can steer away from them, feeling a bit stressed and anxious today but I'm sure that will pass soon xx
