I am also a new quitter, on my 42nd day. You will meet many long term, very wise quitters here. I recommend yo really follow the program, it works :) Plus there are many good threads to read and learn from. IMO Attitude is one of the most important components. Believe in Yourself, do it for Yourself, you are Worth it!
We are here to help you, because any quit is a good quit!!!
Tomorrow I leave on my first vacation as a non-smoker in almost 40 years!!!
Many stressors are removed; a plane ride without cigs, where can I smoke at the hotel, how long between stops so I can smoke, etc. But a few new stressors have appeared LOL. What if another tour member smokes? They still allow smoking at some of these out of the way restaurants in Montana, Idaho, etc.
My Quit Kit is ready and will be with me at all times. It is stocked with SF gum and candy, nic gum (just in case!) and most importantly my affirmation cards that I can use to screw my head back on straight if cravings hit and self doubt creeps in. Also I will always have water with me!
Wish me luck, the new non-smoking me is venturing out on her first trip, of many to come!!!
Back from my great American road trip, 2260 miles through 7 states!!! Not one puff :) Had a great time, saw tons of wildlife, lots of hiking, much to much food! It snowed 2 of the 3 days we were in Yellowstone but that make it kind of special even though visibility was reduced.
There was a smoker on the trip. I found it quite annoying...... She would go off and smoke right before we where getting in the van to move on and I had to smell her for an hour before it dissipated. A few times it caused a craving but mostly was just Stinky!!!
So here I was thinking I'm in the clear and when I get home I'm slammed with cravings. Must be the environment, after all I smoked here for 20+ years. But I will not smoke, that I know
Sparky Congrats on your 6 Months. That is a wonderful accomplishment
So sorry to hear about your husband. May you find peace soon and reach the point where the wonderful memories are stronger than the pain. Best wishes for your healing process.
