Lol bless them :)

We will get excited for you though, 3 years is fantastic, congratulations On a personal note it really helps me to see long term quitters here so thank you x

Oh no not me the boat must have a cutty, I have a fear of shark attacks if I pee in open water knowing my luck something big will come up and bite me in the butt Plus I am traumatised as a child when I was told they put dye in the swimming pool and if you pee in it, it will turn red, stopped me peeing in the pool right away ;)

Getting there kiddo! (Note to self)

Yay happy birthday chaps, have a great day x :)

Yay Mike congratulations, so good to have you back with us and a whole month quit woo hoo, Awesome job!! X

Lmao I never thought I would see Nancy and cooter mentioned in the same sentence, shoes yes :)

I'm sorry you are feeling so crappy but I'm so pleased you posted about it, that is how you are going to hold this quit, symptoms wether quit related or life related it's so easy to go back to what we believed helped us or blame the quit and just get so tired of it all as it can be exhausting in the beginning! We see how much you want this cpk and it does sound like your life and health anxieties are making this quit harder I am not a lover of medicines it's just a personal thing for me I try to deal with stress and anxiety through more natural resourses A few years back I was holding onto a lot of anger, guilt and baggage and I happened upon a business card for a lady hypnotist, I was thinking of quitting smoking at the time and this was one service she offered so I booked an appointment Her room was filled with crystals and skulls and I thought oh hello what's going on here then, turns out she was a spiritual healer, reiki,sound,crystals etc I had never heard of such things before but was intrigued She told me I was holding onto alot of stuff - yeah no s... Sherlock ;) She said I should try alternate therapies So I did, although sceptical at first I was willing to give it a try Turns out it was the best thing I ever did, I still practise what I learned today Point to my ramble, there is always an alternative, I would recommend going to your doctor for a general check up just to put your mind at ease You are already looking at doing the exercising, maybe look at your diet see if any improvements can be made you can Google that but as leanna says stay off the self analysing sites and then maybe try some alternative therapies Something will resonate with you they cannot do any harm I can only advise from my own experiences, but that's why this site works as everyone is different and has so many different experiences It's time for cpk to let go and be well in mind and body, your quit was the spring board for this journey you are on now The only way from here is up, this is the beginning of a new you it does and will get better I promise xx

Great post raya :) it sure is a rollercoaster, just like when we were kids, the ride made you dizzy, sick, laugh, cry, scared, excited but by the end you were glad you were brave enough to get on it x

Christa, the fact that you are doing exercises is amazing! Taking it slow in the beginning is the right thing to do otherwise if it's too hard or too painful it's easy to just give it up and stop, it's better to something than nothing an if you get bored just do something different, keep them juices flowing ;) I'm sorry you have health issues if it's a certain condition could your doctor or a physiotherapy work help with specific exercises? I recommend researching your condition against diet too as some foods makes some conditions worse ie acids etc, I am always amazed how some people changing the food they eat help their symptoms improve so much I agree I think a strong core can help with lots of things You are doing great, so happy you are able to do more than the last few months xx
