Lovely picture Ceil , yes, you will make 3 weeks and 3 months and so on, you can do this :)

Just take it hour by hour and day by day for the moment....

You can make it to 3 weeks and you can make your quit permanent but I think the key to success is putting smoking into perspective and recognising it as just an addictive habit that you don't need. I speak as a former long term smoker and serial quitter so I know how challenging it can be for some of us (especially me) until we get the hang of it.

Like Roisin says 'Just take it one day at time' and, if you can, try not to think that you are denying yourself anything by not smoking. If the cravings bother you just try to work through them but don't allow them to weaken your resolve. As the days go by they will diminish and become easier to deal with so just stick with it and don't be tempted to give in to temptation as I used to do. It's just not worth it.

It does take time but as the days pass into weeks and then months you'll start to wonder why you ever smoked at all.

Good luck, stay strong and always keep your guard up.

Good morning Ceil

Yes, you will make 3 weeks. Of course you will. You can do this.

Keep going. Like RoisinO1 says, one hour, one day at a time.

Keep plodding along! ☺
