Am I in the right place

You are going to do it this time Titch.. but nowt wrong with wishing your luck anyway. so good luck.. look forward to seeing your posts as you go, and don't forget to shout out for some supportive types here if you need us.

Main thing, is relax, keep things in perspective and recognise stress when it starts to build up and deal with it as effectively as you can. As time goes by stress will reduce.. it did for me, and i have a very stressy job.. now i rarely get stressed.

Best o luck!

You might regret saying that Marg. I am only a few hours in but because I am so determined that this time will be the last time I am struggling already which is ridiculous because I wouldn't even have one till lunchtime normally but because I know I can't I keep thinking I want to if that makes sense.

Now I have typed it its making me think it even more so just gonna press submit before I change my mind and decide tomorrow can be day one instead.

Out of all them smilies I can't even find one that sums up how hard this is.

Hi Titch

I won't regret it hun I meant every word promise I'm sorry you're struggling though but day one as you know is nearly always a bad one why but it is I hated everyone one of my day ones and I had many of them over the years

Thinking about it is normal hun you know that you also know it will get better so focus on the better days and not today Don't be sad hun this a great thing you're doing for yourself I promise you can do it I know you can

Right now think about nice things and what could be nicer to think about than your lovely little girl especially the thought of her cuddling her new shoes

Come on Titch chin up and shoulders back be proud of what you've started today hun

A Brand New Smoke free Life now what could be better than that eh

Love and a Huge Hug

Day two.

Woke up this morning and instead of the 3 I would normally smoke before I left the house I decided if I really wanted a smoke I would have one in the car. In the car I decided if I still really wanted a smoke I would have one at lunch time. Will worry about lunch time when it comes so meanwhile day two it is.

ah ha now Barbs took that approach and sailed into her quit and is still going strong not the first conversation we've had about this method, it really works for some people and it worked for me on a heavy night out drinking in one of my quits so who knows it might just get you where your wanting to go

Day 2 of the new you well done
