Bad day

13 years ago 0 +0 / -0 1209

Hi Jack, I'm back also. I have 4 days.... Yes I went through all the reasons why I quit before..

I understand smoking doesn't change any outcome.. In fact smoking is stressful.. You have to go buy them.. standing there handing your hard earned money over ....to buy something dangerous.. you have to find a place you can light up, burn them up and throw away the butts.

This is definately not logical... ok addiction has no logic.. So here we are finally getting rid of the stinking thinking..

here we go one day at a time.

Thanks again Jim! This week I've been very close to the idea of giving up ... Now I realize that it was the addiction speaking in my ears. When you can realize this, one of the most important resources to keep our initial decision was discovered...

Now going to the weekend...

Hey Jack!!!

Congrats on your 6 weeks, buddy!!! Awesome!!! You are absolutely correct... smoking has nothing to do with your life right now! Life is full of ups and downs and as far as smoking goes, there are definitely going to be more ups for you now than the downs! Smoking will NOT make anything better in your life, only worse. I think that you realize that now and that is one major hurdle! Once over that, adhering to N.O.P.E. is that much easier!!!

Have a great weekend, Jack and I hope you have a great reward planned!!! You deserve it! CLINK!!!

I smoked for 26 years plus and it was a big part of my way of life. Now the great adventure is: I can go for a new way of life and... part of the treasure is that I am feeling strong with this! I had a really one or two bad days this week. Problems with wife, son, work...ops what's the problem? It's just my life... Good or not, the cigarretes don't have anything with this. I can go with a little help from you, friends.

THANK YOU ALL AGAIN!

Great to know you're sticking with us Jack. Sounds like you had a very tough time, but you've proven that you have it in you to beat this addiction!

Glad to see you made it too, Jack! I have to agree with you and Breather--this sixth week has been the hardest for me as well. But we are getting through it!
