It is 23:58!! I went to bed at 19:10 to avoid thinking about smoking because evenings are when I smoke more! I am now very awake and alerted! The cravings are....... 🎼🎼🎼🎹🎹🎀🎀🎀🎼

You can so do this,the 1st week is probably the hardest,I promise it does get easier,in the meantime try to do something,anything,runπŸƒβ€β™€οΈ up and down the stairs even. Cravings pass. Remember the 4 D's (look it up in the search box) so you have something to do.🚭πŸ’ͺxx

Hi dear I use to smoke around the same time u use to smoke , watching TV and smoking,at times listening to music and smoking so when I decided to quit I put a stop to all of those things .for the past one week I didn't watch TV neither did I listen to music cos when I do that my cravings to smoke goes higher.and it helped me to reach where I am now.i use to eat carrots when my cravings starts and it helped me too so my dear just try your best to find something to replace the cigs when the cravings starts coming in and I know u can do it.and don't forget that at the end of the tunnel there is light!!!!!!πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺπŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™ŒπŸ™Œ πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘YES U CAN nkineza!!!
