A Dear Smoke Letter

Duckie, Great letter! Thank you for sharing this with us. Take Care, Melanie _________________ The SSC Support Team

Thanks for sharing that awesome letter. I think I'm still in the recent break up part. Mourning my relationship, though I know it was unhealthy. Reading that reminded me of some guys I gave my love and time to who turned out to cost me an emotional fortune. It did get me to the point of seeing how I invited these meanies (nicodemon included) into my world. I haven't gotten to the anger yet... just feeling foggy, anxious, and lonely. Anger would be great. I do feel resentment about all the lies Mr. Nicodemon told me though. How he would help me relax, make me feel cool, give me time to myself, make me part of the group...etc. Damn liars. Thanks also, the rest of you for sharing some of your benefits. I have to remember that this will get easier over time. (And NO "calling" my ex when the chips are down. Clean breaks only).

Dear Smokes.... Here it is and I am 16 days w/o you. I have done quite well with a few minor bumps in the road. I no longer crave the companionship of you. Yes, I know you helped me thru some rough spots but leaving you was the best thing for me to do. I hate you. I hate what you have done to me. I hate that you literally messed with my mind and poisoned me. HOW DARE YOU! Now, I am telling you to leave me alone..take your little minion, nicodemon with you!! BTW, take the daggone brain fog with you too!! I am sick of being in the fog and I want my life back. IT'S MINE and NOT yours.....I will no longer be your sucker and you will never rule this chick again.... Duckie, the one waiting for the door to hit the nicodemon in the butt [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 4/4/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 16 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 132 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $32 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 52 [B]Seconds:[/B] 50
