Thanks for bumping this up... I had junkie thoughts today and wasn't even craving a cigarette!!! I was talking to a friend about how well I was feeling after just a few weeks and started thinking "hey, the body bounces back quickly, eh...? I could smoke for longer, quit later and the body would recoup fast". Evil demon is right.

OMG, mylast. I want to say, "are you kidding me?" but that is exactly the way I would have thought, too. "Well, he's not dead yet so I can go till I'm at least that old." You're right, this is a horrible, evil thing. I used to feel so hopeless about not being able to quit. Now that I know how many other people have thoughts like that, I'm so relieved & much more positive & I know I CAN quit. Thanks for sharing that.

Just what I needed and perfect timing! Junkie told me tonight that if my hairdresser can smoke and he is 50, then I can also smoke for 2 more years. Horrible miserable demon liar! I am also printing this out to carry with me. Thanks!
