What's wrong with me I want to smoke so bad!! HELP

19 years ago 0 +0 / -0 962

Hi Babs - This is not an easy road that we have chosen. This is a road full of pot holes, bumps and curves. The 30 day pit is a huge pot hole. This space of time reminds us that junkie nicdemon is still sitting right there on our shoulders - begging us to smoke. If it was easy then everyone could do it. But it is now easy. It's hard as hell. Be mad but not a your husband, he chooses to drink (not a good choice in my book - but hey, lots of people drink). Come here and vent and vent until you feel better. Lay down and breathe. Concentrate on your breathing and relax from your toes up. You are a strong woman and you can get through all this mess. Like Lady said remember all your stress mechanisms - drink lots of cold water. Relax...remember how good your feet feel...Have you ever tried to paint on canvas? This might be a good way to relax and deal with the stress...and you might surprise yourself with your art. You are doing this and it is making that demon mad. Just bash it in with the bat - Know that we are here for you. Know that we care for you. Just DON'T SMOKE!

Hi Babs - Don't you dare give up that quit just because you are at the campground and it would be easier to smoke! You have come so far - 34 days! Just tell them that you are a NON-SMOKER. You don't have to tell then that you have quit. Tell them that you are allergic to smoke - it will kill you - That is the truth. They are slowing but surely killing themselves. Don't you feel better now that you are a non-smoker? Do you want to go back feeling so bad? I know that you don't. I know that you enjoy your feet feeling so much better. I know that you enjoy having wonderful smelling hair and breath. It's ok to be a witch sometimes...I thought I had gone through the beginning of my quit fairly nice but my husband told me the other day that I was a roaring witch sometimes. Replace your craving time with another activity. Get some binoculars and go bird watching in the golf cart - all the birds are nesting now and so fun to watch. You are a strong powerful woman. You have made this quit your own. You can resist those cravings - name that nic demon the same name as the person who is offering you cigs and imagine that bat just conking them on the head. Promise me that you will come here and vent and vent and vent. That's what we are here for.

Hi Babs, I can't sleep so I thought I would see how you are doing. I hope you are doing better, do you think you could be more gentle with yourself. You're beating yourself up, don't let old nic do that to you. Put him where he belongs, remember Babs we have to have a good attitude, and lots of patience. I know that I get down on myself sometimes, and I leave the door wide open for all those thoughts of smoking to come right in. Stay strong Babs, and keep on fighting, we are thinking of you...
