Canada - Day three! Didn't it feel great waking-up this morning with the knowledge you didn't smoke yesterday? With a reference point confirming you can and are doing this?
Big day today and it just might be a cakewalk for you. You have 2/3rds of the 72 hour detox behind you. Odds are with you.
Big accomplishment. Congratulations.
Smoke in the wardrobe will work itself out. I've been walking around in my skivvies for the last three months. Fashion-wise, it's been difficult (especially because the white skivvies don't flow with the black socks and brown sandals I unsually wear). Going outside with a trenchcoat over said skivvies has led to interesting encounters on the subway and picking-up my children at school. People either look at my wrist for a hospital/institution bracelet or ask if I need help. I've taken to attaching 15 wristwatches to the inside of the coat and this has afforded me a lucrative sideline business. I must admit that upon opening my coat during one sale, a woman customer asking me, "How is every little thing?" left me feeling a little small. But, hey, I didn't smoke (and I sold a watch)!
Fist things first. Victory of Day Three for you.
You can do this!
Quoting: BxMac Thanks for making me laugh! I needed that.
Felt strange to wake up this am and not have a cig.
Halfway through a stressful workday and am riding the crave wave with deep breathing. (now that I can actually breath deep)
Walked behind someone smoking, did not get the urge to run out and have a smoke, now that is big for me.
Looking forward to each day being easier.
So glad I went the cold turkey route, no nicotine whatsoever.
I taped myself during a hacking coughing fit before I quit and watch it every time I get a massive urge.
Puts a damper on the urge pretty quick, it's not pretty.
One day at a time. I know I can do this.
Day 3 is by far the hardest and if I can make it through today, perhaps I'll have this monkey off my back.
Thanks to all my fellow quitters for the support.
I told no one I know that I quit, most of my friends smoke and will deliberately sabotage my efforts to give it up. They have in the past.
I am walking this road alone, with only the help you guys are giving me, until I am free and clear of the urge to go back to smoking.
