Welcome to the Stop Smoking Center. There are a lot of good people here that can and will help you on your quit. There is a lot to read here in the forums too, to help you on your journey to freedom from nicotine.
Congratulations on deciding to quit. It sounds like you've did a little research as to what to expect on your journey. Good for you! The more you know the better the chance is that you will be able to accomplish your quit. Yes it is a little scary making that final decision to to quit and wondering if you can actually do it or not. Keep a positive attitude at all times, it really does help. Since you've tried this before you know that it can be hard at times. You just need to keep fighting.....fighting for your LIFE. I hope your 1st day is going good. Are you doing this cold turkey or using NRT, nicotine replacement therapy?
I wish you the best and hang in there, it's going to be a bumpy ride for awhile. Remember if you really want this to happen you CAN do it!
Today is my Quit day! I'm excited...and nervous and a little scared. Although I've been thinking about quitting again (how, when, etc.) for a long time now, it seems today and using this program and support came up suddenly. I was looking in to Laser treatments and what they entail, for information. I also looked through our work EAP and found this program. That was Tuesday. And here I am on Thursday. I feel it's time and I'm ready to be free. I also feel that it will be a struggle and tough at times. I feel that I can take it and I have a plan and support to read through others experience and encouragement. What I know from previous tries is that I need to keep reminding myself for the next few days (+++) is that the only reason I want a cigarette now is because I ever had one - the trap that it is. My body was complete without nicotine and only wants it because I gave it to it. The cycle. Not just the routine but also the addiction. It's time for me to break it and be happy to do so!
Thanks for being here.
