Just Intoducing myself

HI ALL Back to the page where i made my very first post in here on this wonderful site that im soo glad i found!! Without you i havent made it even this far as i have given up on giving up!! I have gained new strenghth and realised the failures was not really failures but equipped me with new coping skills.. This evil nicotine is hard to quit equal to like heroin cocain, but it is possible with will-power, coping skills, and good SUPPORT from others. Thanks all who have been here and are here helping me in need! I have been married 20 years on the 21st of June and i remember i promised my husband on our wedding day to quit--i did not.. :blush: I kept on and on--and have only made about 7-8 attempts during these 26 years.. I have realised i did not was that serious about quitting.. I did not really wanted it!! As i stayed off had one here and there from kind smokers who willingly offerrred a smoke!! :eg: That i have found is something!! when you smoke and run out --smokers say they can Not give you one as they almost run out--BUT when you are giving up and crave and feel like OK just one and ask --THey give you one freely!! :eg: I hate that!! Did not see it before!! This time i feel different --I want to give up!! But oboy its hard---This first week is "THE HELL WEEK"!! I know!! the longest i lasted is 2 months--> before giving in!! usually as no coping, or no-one to talk to, or very very tense, unable to focus.. I also learnt that coffee seems to aggravate the cravings!! I love coffee --> hmm thats hard But.. I have to do it.. I have to let you know that i need you!! when those cravings come ITS SOO hard to FOCUS!! ann [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 5 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 224 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $79.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 3 [B]Seconds:[/B] 26

I did not--but i looked at it for a while and looked around and thought what the heck picking up a halfsmoked cigarette from someone else.. Blahh Can not BELIEVE I EVER THOUGHT that way?? pick up a butt from the ground.. I hope you are right babybellabud--it does feels like this is going FOREVER and EVER!!! :mad: :mad: Thanks Breaking free and NascarFan for being here!! Andy you are right i would have been smoking to AGAIN if i havent found this site. Danielle if i make a week--I will go for a weekend AWAY with hubby to the Gold Coast-they have some cheap rates going on as wintertime. I have been married 20 years and i promised my hubby to give up then.. :blush: But did not.. He has given up and do not believe me anymore as i have failed about 7-8 times--However i have never lasted more than about 2 months!! so my real mark is 2 months now!! I am going to prove this NICOTINE DEVIL monster wrong this time!! :mad: :eg: [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 5 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 224 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $79.5 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 11 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 0
