I know! I still don't know how am I still here...honestly! I'm amazed with myself.

I had an appointment with the neurologist today and he asked me if I'm still off the fags and I just froze, I couldn't answer him. I just realised this afternoon that I'm actually almost one year off the fags!

Because of all the events over in June, I'm still not celebrating.... But I'm very happy that I've gotten this far.

Enjoy ur time off, I wish I could take another few weeks off.

9 months? Really? 9 months smoke free? That is sooooooo amazing. You should celebrate it every second of every day. Congratulations. I am soooooo jealous. If only i were that far smoke free. If only my body had 9 months time to heal .... tell yourself how wonderfull you are!

mmaya Get you - so good to see you winning! xxx

[mmaya 3 Years Smoke Free in reply to Incy_Wincy]

Hi incy, I've had better and calmer days. I wasn't even thinking about smoking anymore and at around 9 months came back to me and it's been hunting me. Every day is been a fight.

I can take this, I've gone through worse, I can take this too, but I'm shocked to see this happening now, I confess I did not expect it.

I was very tired just before the holidays and the stress was starting to get to me and all, but I cannot understand how does it come back after all those months...

I do remember you for example coming back at around 8 months with a bit of a struggle as well...it must be part of the process. I'm just waiting patiently for it to go away

[Incy_Wincy in reply to mmaya]

That's true - I did suddenly find sort-of-cravings and general weirdness around the nine/ten months mark. It's a devil isn't it?

I like the patient attitude though - that sounds wise. It will pass, if you let it

Well done you xxx

[mmaya 3 Years Smoke Free in reply to Incy_Wincy]

I'll meet you in the penthouse very shortly 😀

[Incy_Wincy in reply to mmaya]

I'll make sure to keep it tidy and well-stocked with treats
