You are making this so much harder that it really is, not only by repeatedly relapsing and torturing yourself with consistent withdrawals by smoking but, by your thinking that it takes inordinate courage and tenacity. Sure, it takes commitment and abiding by that commitment but these are not super powers. We all quit and we are not supermen/superwomen. We are addicts just like you.

Darcy ! Where y'at ?

Here is an important video and resources from our friend, Joel Spitzer, that tells the truth about smoking/stress/anxiety. Smoking Does Not Help You Overcome Stress

Admiring this new stash of copper pots I found on the street yesterday when I went to fetch a parcel of paints. Polished and everything ! AWESOME SCORE ! Now, ready for wet brushes as the day commences.

Congratulations on your Six Weeks of Freedom ! The benefits will continue, some seen, some unseen. You Quit Smoking ! Marvelous. Be sure to reward yourself as best you can in these days of The Plague.

I just wash it in the braid. It loosens up enough to massage my scalp. Good of you to be considering my cleanliness, @Jordan7, lol. I just installed a new shower head that includes a hand held option so you know other bits are being attended to.

I don't remember the last time I unbraided and combed my hair. Standards are slipping way past redemption, will I ever give a hoot again ? Did I ever really give one ?

Hello @pixiedust and congratulations on your decision to quit smoking. You may find this thread helpful in building a strong and sturdy quit for yourself 10 Ways To Effectively Use This Forum To Stop Using Nicotine

This isn't rocket science. You fail because you choose to smoke. There is nothing special about two of three weeks, this is a construct in your head. Get right with yourself. Either you smoke or you quit and stand by your decision. Perhaps, you are still under the illusion that 'just one won't make a difference'. Stop obeying the lies of addiction. Replace them with the stark cold truth. Smoking KILLS.

Everybody deserves support in fighting a deadly addiction. EVERYBODY. Don't blame us if we get upset or disappointed and Doreen is swinging her frying pan. Get yourself together. Be smart about this. You will quit when you decide that is want you want to do. Freedom is delicious. Try it !
