Its important to like your work

It doesn't. Addiction is addiction no matter how long. My smoking triggers won't be like yours but it took a full year to get past most of them. Truthfully, we may always have an occasional trigger pop up years down the road (I have), the difference now is that they are easily swatted away. You will get there Judi, everything you're experiencing is completely normal. I thought of it like the death of a friend(?!). I went through all the phases of mourning and now I'm almost five years quit. Try to find the positives everyday, and remind yourself over and over again of the reasons you're quitting.

I think I have an idea that'll work

Less is more

Welcome AceWhite, Sorry you let that first quit go but I guess that's addiction for you. Glad you're back on it. Stick close and reach out if you need to Oh and congrats on one week quit!

@Judi, it was hard for me to believe that too when I first quit but I hung on because everyone said it would and they were right! Everyone's quit is different but I think it was around the six week mark that things started getting better for me. It wasn't that I didn't still think about smoking that whole first year but the cravings got weaker and weaker with each one conquered. I still remember how great it felt the first day I woke up and didn't think about smoking first thing. I was in such a great mood that I even sang in the shower lol. Hadn't done that in a while.. For years and years cigarettes were such a huge part of our everyday life that there is going to be a lot of triggers to get past. But once you do, the next time gets easier. This is a process that takes time but you will get there

Yell if needed

Throwing my 25,822 cigarettes in the fire in honor of my father who passed away 19 years ago today from smoking related esophageal cancer....

It means he's REALLY got to pee How did a gorilla get a patent for glue?

Yea but how cool would it be to work from home if given the choice?

Can you work remotely?

@reciprocity, size 5 would be about 26.5 waist lol

@JH63, @Linda, @Judi, lets NOPE for Valentine's day ❤

Confession: I went from size 1 to size 5 jeans since last January, totally skipping size 3 somehow....

Wondering why people pay good money for jeans with holes and tears all over them......

A tad more than a dash How does eating an apple a day keep the doctor away?
