-2 top of the morning to you all

They are horrible and brilliant all at the same time. That terrible sinking feeling, then the flood of relief... I think there must be something in the subconscious running a 'test' making sure the quit is real. I still get the very occasional one.

Great work. Congratulations!

Brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

Magical fingers...

I remember not being the boss of me. I remember wanting to arrive at the restaurant early so I could smoke a couple before dinner. I remember eating my appetiser quickly so I could get a cigarette in between courses. I remember dreading vacations because of long flights.... I remember being a slave.

Brilliant, honest post Wendy. For me, a point that you make is incredibly powerful. "Thursday I chose to smoke...Friday I chose not to smoke". For me, the realisation and understanding of that simple thing gave me the key to unlocking the addiction. I have the power. I am in control. I make the decision. Tomorrow, I can be a smoker again. I simply chose to smoke a cigarette. I don't want to be a smoker again, for all the very many reasons that are discussed all over this forum of ours, and so I choose to say NOPE rather than to smoke. Thank you for the honest post, and brilliant work for getting right back on the horse.
