Cravings after 135 days quit????
Hello Spacecas!
I have to say after 8 years of smoke free living...... yes I still do have cravings. They generally are a passing notion, and I have even heard the arguement about loosing wieght by smoking(this one I instantly remembered reading forum posts here about people going back to smoking after gaining weight and then was fat and hooked again). Pretty much I laugh as I remind myself, there is no way I want to go back to smoking,what a stupid notion.. it passes and I move on. The latest smoking dream I had, was a while ago, sometime in the last few months, I dreamt I smoked a cig, but instead of waking up all upset, in my dream I said, this is stupid I don't smoke, I remember it tasted as nasty as it smelled. The urges are easily squelched, I will not let nicoteen take that much time up in my life.
I don't know how your quit will go, we are all different with different situations. My smoking quirks generally pop up after I have been around smokers like in the car, even rolling down the window doesnt help get rid of the stench! I do live with multiple smokers, I can tell you though, it can be done, and you can stay quit, just remain ever vigil. These forums are life savers. While here on the first year of my quit I bet I read posts every day. I can't recall them right now but let a notion pop up about going back to smoking and I am flooded with different things I remember reading.
Stay strong in your quit! One of my favorite sayings here, I can not remember the author but it was on their signature " you are always one cig away from a full pack"
