Do You Ever Wonder Where the Power Behind the Crave Comes From, Quitnet Repost, March 31, 2003 From melder7777 on 3/31/2003 12:01:58 PM Try looking in the mirror YOU have the ability to give it strength. Every time you tell yourself you can't take it....every time you think of quitting as some form of pain.....every time you tell yourself you are giving up something when in reality you are TAKING back something.....your freedom....your health. Oh yeah....I know....you're different....you have more problems....more reasons to justify that one cigarette.....your will power is less....etc ...etc...etc. Sorry....not buying......we've ALL been there......that's why this site exists.....because we all didn't believe that we could actually kick this habit. Well....you can. Hard to believe huh? The next time those pesky "unbearable" cravings grab a hold and start taking you down that path of destruction again.... Try facing them down......ask yourself just how bad you REALLY feel. I guarantee you ......the repercussions of NOT giving up this habit will give you a whole new perspective on what "unbearable" is all about. Right now you have this choice to make......you have it in your grasp. If you let go of that choice I guarantee you will have regrets and once that happens you can wish you had chosen differently all you wanted but you don't get a second chance. Hanging on guarantees freedom. And freedom is something I DO NOT plan on letting go of ever again......not for anything.......I've tasted it........it's WORTH the fight. HANG ON! TOOTH AND NAIL!! This is YOUR life. Don't keep playing Russian roulette with it. Maureen PS - and try to remember that you're NOT smoking because this is a choice YOU made (and a good one)2 points

Good morning. My partner works out of town a lot so I see him at home every second week. One thing that I've found very annoying is the smell of cigarette smokes on his cloths. I notice it more acutely when he is gone for a week.I start feeling angry inside that I have to be subjected to the nasty smell of cigarette smoke on his cloths. I love him BUT......1 point

Many folks on here have had a smoking dream , and have been so relieved when reality has set in . I never did have one of those dreams , maybe deep down in my conscience I knew I couldn’t smoke again due to fear of amputation. I can only imagine how pleased and relieved you were QG your precious quit was safe1 point

Ohhh that's for sure Doreen, we all wished we were free, and and regret smoking when we were smoking! I had a dream last week that I smoked a whole cig and then after I finished it, I was so pissed and upset. When I woke up that morning I wasn't sure if it was a dream or not, but then, when I saw that I was in bed, I knew it was just a dream! Thank God!!!! I honestly wasn't sure, if it were a dream or reality! Do you still get dreams where you are smoking after 10 years of being smoke free?1 point
