Reciprocity

-1 Hey! I'm negative now too??

^^^ I agree Octain! I was never a "social media" person before I quit smoking but I have found being able to communicate with others who KNOW what I'm going through has been an important tool in my own quit. That was totally unexpected to me when I first quit. And I think in most people's experience, family and friends will expect you to be totally over everything within a couple of weeks, which we here all know is not even close to reality. In my mind, that's when your connection to people here becomes even more important because we know you will need periodic direction and support for quite some time, even after the days of strong urges to smoke have largely faded. Stick around - help others and help yourself and you will benefit from it

NOPE!

Being aware of potential challenges is half the battle. You have already developed effective strategies for outsmarting the nicodemon. Just have to make sure to drawn upon them if/when needed

I too never had a dream about smoking that I can remember anyway. Then again, I don't remember dreams 99% of the time anyway so maybe that's a blessing for me? Anyway, glad you just Dreamed it

NOPE! No time for smoking ..... I've been invited to a BBQ

Kind of the same thing with me. Just a bolt of logic out of nowhere one day and ........ that was that. NOPE ever since and have been sure as I can be that I would never smoke again for the past 6 months or so. You have to be ready to make that commitment to yourself in order to quit and stay quit. Once you truly do that, you;re golden. Nothing will stop you

It will be like that for a bit Octain - ups and downs but know that this is completely normal. It WILL smooth out in pretty short order providing you stick with the NOPE program. I remember some days in my early quit when the craving seemed to be just constant. Next day, not so much. It's a process. Stick with it & you will be happy you did
