Want a cigarette so badly


for 18 år siden 0 19 logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo logo 0
THE SAME THING IS HAPPENING TO ME!! I WENT OUT SATURDAY NIGHT WITH TWO OF MY FRIENDS. ONE IS AN EX-SMOKER LIKE ME AND THE OTHER ONE NEVER SMOKED. WE WERE IN A SMOKE FREE BAR. MAYBE IT WAS BECAUSE I HAD A COUPLE OF BEERS, BUT I DID A REALLY STUPID THING. WHEN I WENT TO THE BATHROOM, I ASKED A WOMAN WHO WAS IN THERE IF SHE HAD A CIGARETTE. THANK GOD SHE DIDNT SMOKE!! I CANT BELIEVE I ACTUALLY DID THAT!! IF SHE HAD BEEN A SMOKER, I MIGHT HAVE A PACK OF CIGARETTES TODAY AND HATING MYSELF FOR IT. I WAS IN THAT (I JUST WANT ONE) MOOD. I DID THAT LAST TIME I QUIT AND THAT JUST ONE A DAY WAS ONLY GOOD FOR A LITTLE WHILE. BEFORE I KNEW IT I WAS BACK FULL FORCE. I AM DEFINATELY WEAKER WHEN I DRINK, BUT IN GENERAL I AM JUST GOING THRU A HARD TIME. I STILL MISS SMOKING AND I SHOULD. I SMOKED SINCE I WAS 12 AND I AM 50 NOW. I DONT REMEMBER LIFE WITHOUT A CIGARETTE. AND I FEEL LIKE I AM MORE ADDICTED THEN A LOT OF OTHER PEOPLE, MAYBE YOU ARE TOO. I GUESS THAT MEANS WE HAVE TO WORK HARDER AT IT. BUT TIME WILL MAKE IT BETTER. TIME ALREADY HAS MADE IT BETTER, WE JUST DONT REALIZE IT SOMETIMES. HANG IN THERE AND I WILL TOO.

Hi aubanki, First, you KNOW you don't want to just trash 6 1/2 months. Can you imagine how that would make you feel??? I can honestly say that those people that did slip...I don't know a single one that was happy about it. So obviously, smoking again isn't the answer. aubanki, have you been allowing yourself to think of smoking again? Have you been exposed to smokers and begun to romanticize what it was like when you smoked? Is it beginning to sound good? Remember, it's human nature to remember good things...and subdue the bad. If we ALLOW our minds to dwell on the desire to smoke... that desire grows. The trick here is...you don't allow those thoughts. You have to distract yourself and remind yourself of the reasons why you quit. Retrain your brain. Remember how hard you've fought to get this far. The physical symptoms? They're probably anxiety that smoking masked before. You WILL learn to deal with this and it will fade. Give yourself more time to heal. It's always stuck in my mind that someone here once said you have to experience all the seasons first... You do... so give yourself a few months more. It makes a huge difference. Take a deep breath, Regroup... Come here whenever you need help... But smoking again? Don't let that be an option. "This too shall pass"... and it always does :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/2/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 545 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 10,908 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1945.65 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 57 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 6 [B]Seconds:[/B] 21

Aubanki, Some people just take longer to reach a comfort zone. I know I was still craving at 6 months. I still have occasional craves (should have seen me during canning season! *lol*) Keep using all your coping skills. Consider all the suggestions put forth in this thread. I can tell you that it does get better! and better! and better! hurstk, don't let this scare you! Not everyone suffers this long! Everyone's quit is different and with any luck, yours will be smoother. What this should do, is make you aware that you should be prepared for a longer time just in case! From what I've seen in here, most quitters find a comfort level between 3 to 6 months. For some it's a few weeks and for some it's a year or more. But even for those of us that still crave after 6 months...it's NOT the intense craving that you're going through now! Plus we have better coping skills for getting through them! I think the one thing we all agree on is....IT IS WORTH IT! :) Life is good!

the fact is, that whatever the cause.....hormonal, withdrawal, panic at feeling you have "lost" a part of self, panic and stress at really 'dealing' with life instead of dulling it with nicotine....what'ever' you call what you are passing through....you will do just that.....[u]pass through this phase[/u]...........just hang tight....the quit is the prize.....you have it in your fist....don't let go! ;) Katy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/4/2002 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1673 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 66,937 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $9536.1 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 218 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 37 [B]Seconds:[/B] 6

aubanki, Many members have experienced this within their quit. It will pass and you may need to take some you time. Use those mechanisms if need be and push forward. Talk to your doctor and discuss a plan that is right for you. You are doing great, so be proud! Keep Strong, Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
