Day 4 Smoke Free


14 years ago 0 42 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0

Hi, welcome to the best support site I have found so far. Its made a diffrence in my quit.  I am 14 days quit, after being smoke free for a little over a month, then slipping, and smoking a whole pack in one night, I was using the nicotine gum, and then the patch,,,,,and honestly I don't think I could have done it without the help, but now I am COMPLETELY nicotine free, no patch, no gum......just chewing on JuJu stxs......google JuJu Stxs and you will find out what I am talking about.  I started an embroidery project that I compulsively worked on in the first few days of my quit, because it kept my fingers busy.   I smoked for 32 years, since I was 12.  We can do this together, check into this forum at least once a day, and I will write you. I know what you are feeling, because I felt that way too. Its amazing how mind consuming quitting can be, the harder you try not to think about smoking the more you think about it.  I really think the key is to pat yourself on the back at the end of a sucsessful day.....and keep it one day at a time, anyway, I just want to encourage you to stay here and post often,,,,,,because your not alone,,,,,,,,I think about smoking everyday, but now I am thinking how great it is that I am not spending 6.50 on a pack of smokes. Thats a lot fun retail therapy money...... to spend on whatever I fancy.,.....I like to try new teas, (flavored) and I love my coffee still.....but now I can just go shopping and buy some sandals for summer and not be worried that I don't have enough for smokes.....Its been the most liberating thing I have ever experenced.......and its so healthy for your child......the best reason in the world to quit......Jules

Keep doing what you are doing as 4 days is awesome!  One day at a time adds up fast!  I remember my first week, I did everything I could possibly do to keep busy.  I had the house cleaned, I had the car cleaned, I avoided smokers, everything I could do to avoid any triggers.  Post as often as you need, somebody is always close by!
