Good luck you guys! I know that you both can do this...so just hang in there. It WILL get easier as time goes by. Remember, millions have people have quit before you...and it was not easy for any of us...just remember that...that if millions could do it,..well "so can I". Every day gets a bit easier, so just take it "one day at a time", and you'll make it! :)
Best of luck to you girls!

Jules - that's right where I'm at...haven't smoked yet, but I feel I could break at any moment..............I hope you try again.
Deda

jules.....it's no biggie...just do it again, soon. :) Most of us have to quit a few times before we do for good. Keep trying, girlfriend. Never stop trying!
Susan....hang in there girl....you are right...it should [for the most part] be all out of your system by now. Just don't lose the time you've already invested. You made it through the worst part already....just keep yourself busy. At least it's summer and you can get outside whenever you want....you can walk a lot, or whatever. Good luck you two!
God bless....

Thanks Deda -
I'm still trying to hang - just some days are tougher than others - I'm sure you know. Anyway, hopefully tomorrow will be better.

Susan.....
Great thing...you're still trying to hang...way to go, girl! Tomorrow is ALWAYS better when you quit smoking....well, usually. They'll always be ups and downs, stress issues will come up, etc., but that's just the way life will always be....unfortunately. You almost have to expect it, especially when you quit smoking. (I was always afraid when my dad passed away, that I would instantly relapse, but it's been 3 months now, and it hasn't happened...I'm not about to throw away all this) You'll even see that one month from now will be tons better than you're feeling right now...so it's SO worth hanging around and NEVER giving in. And one year from now, you'll really be doing great....and, yes, I think you will get there too. :nono: You sound VERY determined...GO GIRL!:jester: Keep it up!!!!!
:::high fiven Susan::: :wave:

Gonna carve notches into the bedpost?!! LOL Just kidding! Yeah, in the beginning, each day you get through without a ciggie is just such a big accomplishment...ya almost want to shout it from the rooftops,
"I DIDN'T SM0KE TODAYYYY!!!" :p You deserve a blue ribbon...you really do. You know you're tough as steel when you find you can quit smoking...you have to be. Sleep tight...

Don't you do it !!!!!!!!! Be strong you can get through the cravings they last just a few minutes, go for a walk, read a book ,exercise clean the house,something just DON'T SMOKE!!!!!!:blob_fire
Deda
08-25-2006, 04:08 PM
Oh I hope you didn't give in! I just got on here and saw this. Susan..if you haven't smoked yet, please don't do it. Follow Liamsmom advice up there. Just busy yourself....forget about it! She is right, those cravings pass SO FAST!! They really do.
Well, I'm going to be out for the day, leaving right now. Will check on here later and see how it went. Hoping you haven't given up. I did have a relapse 4months after I quit, and I hated myself for it...but I jumped right back on the quit wagon...to never touch one again since then. Just keep busy, and try to relax.
Good luck!!! :)

Still haven't slipped yet, but feel I'm losing control over it.......Anyway, I've decided to go visit my folks this weekend to get my mind off things so I'll be leaving in a bit. I'll try to get on their computer tonight, but may not be back here until Monday. Hopefully I'll have good news to report......
