I too would like to welcome you Mel Please do read all you can here and watch some videos as well (there's a whole page for those here). Helps pass the time and, will give you some very useful information about this addiction. As Jillar said, this nicotine addiction will use any weakness we have (loneliness included) to lure us back to feeding it. Our addiction to nicotine can't feed itself. It needs us to do that and we become literally slaves to this addiction. It's only when we make that personal commitment to say NO MORE that we can take our lives back. Have a look around this site and read all you can. I think you'll see we are all the same here. Nicotine addicts supporting each other while we turn our backs on this horrible addiction. In particular, have a look at the daily NOPE page. This is where we all make a daily pledge of NOPE (Not One Puff Ever). This is at the crux of what quitting is. Never take another puff and you'll be free

Glad you got through this MLMR It's exactly like Jane said. Your active addiction is dying because of all the hard work you've already done. These attacks are it's dying efforts against you! These one's are sometimes harder than in the early days of your quit because you aren't expecting them like when you first quit. The good news is, you have all the mental tools you need to fight these off and, you have all of us here to support you You're doing all the right things MLMR! Including posting up to the SOS page. That's exactly what it's here for!

Then you walk on the plane and behold ..... two or three of those screaming little munchkins are sitting right behind you

Her idea of the charm bracelet was fabulous Anything you can use to encourage yourself to quit and stay quit is well worth what ever effort it requires! Your addiction will try it's best to defeat your efforts once you quit so you have to outsmart the addiction. It's totally possible using tools such as Lilly has done

^^^ Yes! Everywhere is getting weirder weather these days. Seems to be getting more extreme each year now. The hurricanes, the wild fires and the temperature extremes are crazy now.

It was 96F degrees yesterday and 44F degrees today. Felt freezing cold when I went outside this afternoon I wish the transition was a little more gradual
