In the past year, I quit for 28 days. I quit for four days. This has to be it. This time I just gottadoit. I get these pains in my upper chest caused by irritation from smoking and I cough. I can cough forever. When I don't have a cigarette for awhile the pain goes away and I stop coughing, then naturally it's time to have another few cigarettes and it all starts up again.
Last night was different. I was coughing and smoking when I picked up the pack, threw it on the desk and said 'I'm done, that's it, no more". I have been jealous of those 28 days ever since I picked up a cigarette on the 29th day. Oddly and it's really odd. When I got up this morning, I did not reach for a cigarette. Normally, my eyes aren't really open when I'm lighting up.
My coughing has been so much less today and I have not had one YET! The pain is diminished considerably. I cannot give in again. I don't want that pain anymore or my entire body wracked with a coughing spasm when I'm trying to have a conversation. I'm done, that's it, no more. This time I just have to do it and really quit.
