I'm so glad I found this site! I just called my doctor yesterday for a Chantix prescription because it's getting too expensive to smoke! On top of the already many reasons to quit, this hike in the price is the straw that broke the camel's back for me. I've smoked on and off for 31 years (less about 5 years for pregnancy, nursing, a small bout with cancer, etc.) Even getting breast cancer wasn't enough to make me quit for good. How sick is that? I'm tired of tempting fate by continuing to smoke and I'm tired of smelling bad, foul smelling car, gross taste in my mouth and even worse breath, and on and on and on. I am going to text you today so I can get the weekly tips. I need all the help I can get. My quit date is set for April 4. I will definitely check your blog daily for inspiration. I discovered this at the perfect time -- must be a sign that I need to quit and I'm going to be successful. Thanks for this!!!!!
ReplyDeleteI started taking Chantix last week. This next Saturday is my quit day and I'm already getting nervous! Usually in the past when I plan to quit smoking, I start smoking a lot more because I think I'll never have a chance to smoke again. Addicts are ... well, addicted! This time though I'm not smoking extra -- seems to bother my stomach a bit. Could be the Chantix?
ReplyDeleteI'm getting the text tips as requested and although they are such simple tips, they are things I probably wouldn't have thought of. I'm already planning on what to do with my hands when I'm in my car (that's my main time to smoke). I'll probably wear out a coach's ear by calling everytime I'm in the car.
Have you really really not smoked? Not even one? Everytime I quit, for some reason I think I can just have one and then there I am again smoking daily. I've cut down the past few days and I'm only smoking about 8-10 a day (on weekends a couple less than that). So I've got a good start on preparation, cutting down instead of smoking more.
I bought a new car a few weeks ago (new to me) and I swore I was not going to smoke in it but that only lasted about 3 days. I spent a good coule of hours yesterday cleaning my car really well inside and out... getting ready for it to be a non-smoker's car.
Smoking is a strange addiction. If you asked me what I hate the most about myself I would definitely say smoking. But on the otherhand, I have so many memories connected with smoking... funny memories from high school, smoking in the lounge during General Hospital with my sorority sisters. (That tells you how old I am. Now they don't even allow smoking in sororities!) Smoking got me through my divorce and was my constant companion when I was single for the following 8 years. It's almost like a friend I will miss. Of course this friend is a murderer. Somehow I've got to reconcile that and see them for what they are and hate them for what they are doing to me.
Okay, enough rambling. I'm just trying to pump myself up for the big day!
