Default Day seven...

and I'm a hot, twitchy mess! I didn't intend on quitting but a week ago I came back from vacation and decided not to smoke anymore. Just like that. I've managed to go seven days without the first craving and today I'm a wreck!! Actually the irritability started last night, I just didn't recognize what it was. My poor honey. He caught pure hell!

I've smoked a pack a day (give or take) for the past 10 plus years. I've been wanting to quit for some time but just haven't been serious about it. After a short visit to GA, where Camel menthol is only $3.96 per pack, I cannot bring myself to pay $9.87 per pack here in NY! Fuckers!! Oops...there's the cranky again! So for health and financial reasons, I am gonna take a stab at it!! Wish me luck and thanks for reading. Also, thanks for sharing your stories. It helps to read about your struggles/successes as well!

S'grand to come back to this thread and read that more folks are choosing their lungs over their addiction(s).

Keep the faith those of you who are giving it a go. If you lapse just carry right on and don't give up giving up.


LP, you've done brilliantly making it to half a year. A whole half a year!!! Go you!


Think it's 2 and half-ish years since I gave up tobacco and it 6 and half months since I gave up the other thing that was killing me.

AS OF THE 4TH I AM



SMOKE FREE!

I have stopped myself of smoking 7,840 smokes to date.
I have stopped myself from smoking 392 packs of smokes

Still blows my mind.
