I Do Not Fear Fear Anymore

[Tink]

Last week I feared many things as I have yet to face many triggers as I am nearly 5 months quit but felt I needed to go full circle to face all my triggers to believe I had this quit under complete control

 

however this last week has turned that theory on its butt

 

today for me was many many triggers rolled into one and if I had stopped to think about it or worried about it - it would have been so much worse

 

last week I faced my `drinking in the sun` It was not hard - it was uncomfortable for a short while as I made it so by the fear of it but actually I can honestly say that it was a doddle in comparison to the fear of anticipation

 

but - it put me in good stead for today as I was at a festival plenty of tea was flowing ;) I had not once been scared or feared the day I just went with the flow

 

The day ended very emotional for me as my years of coaching my nieces was in evident that paying it forward works - life had indeed come full circle for them and I had not been more proud, more emotional than tonight for many years 

 

If ever there was a time to turn to the cancer stick(as an excuse) it would have been tonight, for a celebration or a comfort, beer etc etc - but it did not

 

a hug with my girls was more than enough

 

keep your quit KYQ and stick to NOPE - it works  

 

today was a good day :)

Tracey, Congratulations on your forever quit.  That was such a nice post.  Everyone is tested with their quit, but that is ok, when you know and have the confidence that you will pass that test, and you do know.  Proud of you!
