Tomorrow is the day! - SoberRecovery : Alcoholism Drug Addiction Help and Information

Teiger · 10-29-2004, 06:21 PM

Hi there everybody. Well I am glad to see this support for quitting smoking is here. I have chosen Saturday, October 30 as my quit date for the cigarettes. I had quit for 13 months and started up again last December. I am gonna try it again, one day at a time, or one hour at a time whatever it takes. I lost both my parents to lung cancer and I don't want to go that way. I want to get up and breath easy in the morning and not have the smoker's hack and to sleep better at night. I want to not have the cigarettes as a defense to my emotions. I would like to go up 2 or 3 flights of stairs at work and not be winded right away. I want to live a long and healthy life and see my son grow up. He is 9, which is the same age I was when my father died. I am 39 now. I just wanted to post this here as I think I am gonna need lots of support. Thanks for letting me share.

Love,

Karen

Karen;
Good luck to you. Remember, this is one time when quitters are WINNERS!

Let us know how it's going, OK?
Shalom!

Well, I crashed and burned the first day.

I will post again when I feel I am truly ready. Good luck to the rest of you all who have quit. You are all winners.

Love,

Karen

Karen,
Don't beat yourself up. Just get your slef together and try again. Trust me, I have tried many times! I'm now calling them "trial runs!"

Shalom!
