thats the feel i have gotten over the last 3 weeks. Ofcourse I still want one occassionally, but i do not think about it that much anymore. In my first month I thought about it almost all the time -
!
The ideal place to aspire to is this fir now - becasue at least for me its allowed me to work through most triggers and no longer affect me. This is huge becasueif those triggers are no linger triggers and can in fact make you feel better about non smoking - what a victory.
My biggest trigger back fire positively was drinking. If a poured a Jack, i lit up instantly, and as long as i was sipping Jack I had one lit - such fun! After I stopped - a Jack was a nightmare for me - i would tentatively drink one and mourn the loss of Jacks perfect partner - but id get buy -just press along. Now i look forward to a jack on a friday, and look even more forward that my throat will not be hurting, that i will not be surrounded by a cloud of smoke so that everyone thinks i.m trash, i will not smell - will not cough, or get nauseous from oversmoking due to being intoxicated.
finding old neg triggers and can become positive experiences is truly when you go from ex-smoker to a non-smoker - thats where i,m for wife and especially the 3 yr old boy loves - i did for them
