Well, I'm back again and I'm working on day 2. Cold turkey again. I have to quit. It seems that everywhere you read about someone else dying of cancer. I have to quit. I want to quit.
I was on day 23 and I bought a pack of cigarettes. Don't ask me why I just did. I smoked for 5 days and today I am trying again. Every cigarette I had I felt bad but I still had them. What's wrong with me. I don't have will power. I feel so bad. When I wasn't smoking I felt good about myself. I would go home and give my kids and hubby a big hug. I did not smell of cigarettes. I'm trying again. How do I start my meter again. Please help me.

Well, I'm on day 5 and it's been a very long day. I am doing this cold turkey with a little help from the nicotine gum. Today I had to chew on the gum or I think I would have smoked. I don't know why today of all days. I felt good this morning, did not crave until 10:30 when I usually go for break. Today I just bought a coffee and went into the lunchroom to read my book instead of going out for coffee with the other girls. Maybe that's what it is. I have been eating skittles since after lunch.

This is the 3rd attempt this year. I am getting discouraged. I did not think it would be so hard. By head is playing tricks on me. Last week I decided that Monday, May 1 wat it, again. My hubby was out of town and I could smoke all I wanted withoug him knowing about it. I smoked 37 cigs on sunday alone. It's almost as if I had to get as many of them in me as possible. If I was reading this about someone else I would think they are crazy. I'm starting day 3 and so far so good. I need your help I know I can do this. I have to do this for my kids and hubby. My sister has breast cancer and it's scarry, you would think that would be enough to make me stop.

I'm working on day 3, a little harder today. I keep thinking about smoking, just sneaking one cigarette won't hurt. Well I guess it would if I'm trying to quit.
You see I have been a closet smoker, my husband did not know I started smoking again years ago. If he smelled it on me I would say I was out with the girls. I did smoke at break from work with the girls but he did not know. I would sneak smokes when he was away from home. He would take the kids out and I would sneak one in. I have been doing this for years.
Since January this year I have been going 2 to 3 days at a time not smoking at work. Then the weekend would come along, you see I don't work Fridays and the kids are at school, hubby at work and I can smoke all I want at home, well outside.
The people at work think I stopped in January or good. I would go for walks instead of sitting with them.
Last week my hubby asked me if I started smoking again. He found a lighter in my bag when he was looking for his wallet that I put in the bag earlier. I told him that I occasionally had a smoke with friends. I feel bad all the time.
I just spoke to my hubby and he told me he has a meeting tonight. The first thing that came to mind was smoking. I don't want to smoke tonight is this just a habit.
I have to quit, help me quit please
