Just woke up to start day 22. Feeling good, sun is shining and although I think about smoking quite often the physical pain of withdrawel is over. Now If only I could get over this mental hurdle of 'wanting' a cig so badly at times all would be great. Can't wait for the day or days when it's no longer even a thought. I'll get there, we all will. It just takes time. NOPE!
Day 22: Just woke up to start day 22. Feeling... - No Smoking Day
Day 22
That's the one........the psychological that is the sneaky and underhand one, which is actually ourselves being sneaky, underhand and destructive against ourselves. Over 3 months in I can hand on heart write that my thought craves are nowhere near as strong as they were a month and longer ago, but they are still there rumbling around.
Breathe and NOPE, breathe and NOPE.
Hey Canada - your up, the sun is shining and your feeling good - Sounds like a great day to me!!! forum.nosmokingday.org.uk/c...
Like Walkabout said - That one is a sneaky thing and will probably be around for a while, but the good best news is it gets weaker with timeforum.nosmokingday.org.uk/c... Just keep at it - what ever your doing is working
22 is a great number.
Yes it really does get easier. I never believed it, but it's true. I wake up some mornings and don't think about it for a few hours. I never thought it could happen!! Just take it one hour at a time - and you'll be grand
Keep it up Canwe
Great job Canwes
I've got over wanting. Sometimes I still WANT to want, which is just bizarre...but it'll pass, everything else has so far
Good luck and welcome x
Pretty nice group of supporters here that's for sure. How can a person possibly cave with all this wonderful support.........
I'm gonna hang in there and see how much easier the ability to say no to the urges becomes. It would be such a shame to go back now. Last year I was running and managed to get up to 12k on my runs while being a smoker, it's my goal to start running again some time after July 1st, maybe it'll help me shed a few of the pounds that have appeared out of no where. One challenge at a time, lol.
you will do it, just as long as you keep your chin up and always remember what you just said in the post above
