NOPE!!!!!!!!

You made it through, congrats. During the third week you will experience triggers that seem to come out of no where. This can be frustrating since it is hard to pinpoint the strength behind the craves. I went through them -- I just remembered that first week and did not want to go through again and gotten to the three week point so I plowed through it. It was easier than the first week but still frustrating. The positive out of it was that I realized that I could conquer the craves at this point and I could see the positives to quitting. You are doing the right thing by coming here and posting, it shows your resolve. Well Done!!!!

NOPE!!!!!!!!

Christa, awesome job on the 1st month -- it only keeps getting better at this point. Remember to take time and celebrate!!

NOPE!!!!!!!!

I am 8 months also and agree with what Sslip states. At this point I am somewhat comfortable with my quit but not totally confident. I feel I have much to learn still with 44 years of smoking behind me so I know there are still hidden triggers that I have to on guard for. I waiting to get through the next month or so (big time of smoking "enjoyment" from this time of year, end of summer beginning of fall). I fully expect to make the turning point -- but taking it one day at a time and realizing how far I have come!!

Hang in there. You can and are doing this. I am glad you came online for the encouragement -- it is showing that you have control (though it may not feel like it). Keep posting an this will pass!!
