    Last night I'd spent sometime on some suggestion to quit smoking but I fell a sleep and my battery went dead and I lost it. (Story of my life Cheesy)

    today's suggestion
    Think of something you really want or really want to do. Something perhaps that you didn't think you had the money for. Calculate how much you spend on cigarettes write it down on something you're going to keepThen figure out how long it will take saving your money usually spent smoking to got that thing you really want.

    If it's not a realistic goal change it a little. Some people are good at long range goals. Some people need to have positive re-enforcement several times a day.
     
    As a nurse I've talked to a lot of people about quitting smoking.

    ÀN ACCOUNT
    Young woman wants to go Hawaii a bit of an under taking from the central US for someone who doesn't have much. She was a heavy smoker and cigarettes are expensive here. We figured it out if she really shopped the sales and didn't go at high tourist season in six to eight months she could have airfare. Her goal was actually to see the ocean so we looked in to camping or motels in not tourist places. She was welling to have to reward a year in the future.

    Look into buying Allan Carr's Easyway to Stop Smoking (http://www.amazon.com/Allen-Carrs-Easyway-Stop-Smoking/dp/0615482155). It seems to have good reviews on Amazon and r/stopsmoking, and may help. You may want to join the Stop Smoking community at http://www.reddit.com/r/stopsmoking and post over there too, as there are many others doing it as well. Good luck!  Afro

    Great job! First try 48 hours.  party!

    Did I read some where you had been smoking 20 cigarettes a day? To go 48 hours with no real plan was wonderful. The American Cancer Society suggests having a plan of how you are going to quit.

    suggestions for the day

    DETERMINE WHAT TYPE OF QUITTER YOU ARE


    Were you smoking filtered cigarettes?

    cloves mixed tobacco, mentholated and sweetened filter, 20+ a day, that's my bane

    I'm currently using pipes, it's not my, thing, regular, recently bought, to lessen the nicotine intake, mouth, tongue  numbing, bitter, out of style kind of thing, well at least in my sense, you won't see me puffing those in public,
    cleaning those pipes, oozed with tar, it's a gruesome task ..

    what kind of quitter am I ?

    a mixture of creature of habit and a boiling pot

    I go like 'chick losing its mother hen' within 48 hour, due to uncontrollable urges to laugh, rage, being deprived of the substance, of tortures 'dementor' type bleak world kind of thing, a must have after eating kind of habits

    The longest time I'm not smoking is when I'm sick, those happens a long long time ago, getting sick and feels loathsome towards tobacco, I could use those strain of influenza nowadays, but it will feel shitty and helpless, and I think I'm immune to those already

    I really need to get past 48 hour vulnerable limit or whatever they're called, it's varies from individual to individual, then 2 weeks of cessation, I read that this is the important period, determining factors that you're really quitting or not

    then a month, a year and so on ..

    I could feel the benefits of quitting in my previous attempt, monstrous eating appetite, its scare me, how much I can eat a day O_O, ... lol

    starts to dream again, even if it's a lucid one about having smoke kind of dream, I welcome thee, waking up with sore throat, feel refreshed, instinctive feeling my body are up to something that's healing, I believe soo

    I need an arsenal, to stave of the smoking habits, losing something, a dear friend ..

    chewing gum, course salt maybe ..

    feeling uncomfortable, tingling feet, tight chest,

    showering, get a feet massage, my lil bro is a reflexologists, should takes advantage of him, I could blab non-stops with him, I just need to take precautions not to touch religious matter on my side

    now the will factor, how to toughen those up

    I'll keep my craving illustrated here, it'll be mundane, to stave off the craving, this will be my journal of quitting,

    tbh, I'm split for, either to write or to forget that I'm craving, in others words to be upfront or being leisurely about it, I find that the more you're thinking about stop smoking the more you're thinking to smoke, your thought on this ..

    cessation starts now, 11/07/2012, 1:01pm, Wednesday

    trying to break through the 48 hour, continuing the cessation to 2 weeks period or above, it's a war of will, a continuous effort

    The Nic-CO-Tine are an insidious enemy.  There is some though that they are multidimensional. Able not only to attack in the present but also be attacking from the past and future in synchronization.  grin12  That's why it is so important to have a plan, know what kind of quitter you are and to use ever resource available to you.

    You are absolutely correct that period at approximately 48 hours is very critical. The human system begins to come out of the paralyzing effect of the Nic-CO-Tine . Only the greatest of warriors have ever been know to beat the Nic-CO-Tine in solitary battle using just will power. It however can be done but in known history has never been done by a baby chicken yet. We are all forward to this landmark success . For optimal battle results for baby chickens  it's recommended by staging adviser Usaarn  cool2 to use all available resources and to search all known and unknown galaxies for additional assistance. Those of the Reflexology Clan are very valuable in the battle against the Nic-CO-Tine you are very fortunate to have one among family use him will and with due honor avoiding religious talk at all cos! Keeping your mouth and hands busy wiith activities that don't involve the ingesting of nicotine is very important in this battle. How you do this is often best selected by yourself as you know what activities you find soothing. Attention to nutritional health is important. Avoiding contact with nicotine is important because this is how the Nic-CO-Tine gain entry in to your body. grin12

    If you want to talk about quitting or not depends on you. So people like to talk it put some people like to change it to a fantasy and act it out. However you do it is up to you, for most people it works to have some sort of support group or support individual to interact with. You take the lead your support follows you everyplace except back into the world of the Nic-CO-Tine.

    The battle rages on...,.

    Oh.good thing. Some people I encounter start doing every sort of crazy stuff because of cravings.

    I emailed that picture of the little girl with the white tiger to my sister. She showed it to my Mom who wanted to know how I made that picture of me when I was little with the tiger. LOL. So they've been showing it arounding to relatives saying, "Look at this picture of Lynna I found when I was going through things " . No one has questioned if it is me. Everyone just wants to know how the picture was taken.LOL.
