vitaminb6 to a great thread...

For me smoking cancer sticks was a must when I was drinking. There would be no way I could quit smoking if drinking.

Now in reverse I quit drinking for very long periods of time but still smoked.

Of course being an alcoholic and addict it only makes sense not to drink, drug, or smoke.

B6- I read Alan Carr's book. It's pretty good.

Phase2- I went cold turkey too. It can be a little rough, but as you said, it gets it done with once and for all. It's the fastest way through. I tried other ways, but I was always most successful with cold turkey. Keep hanging in there.

I found looking on the positive side of things to be really beneficial. It always helped me to remember I was working towards freedom from addiction, health and a better life.

Another 24 for me.

Looking forward to another 24 hours more living nicotine free...stressful time with my new used computer a lot of F its....but got through without a cancer stick. Just have to be vigilant today...only been up for half an hour and have had a couple good urges...not any more.

HALT is a great program for smoking, drinking, narcotic urges...take care of being Hungry, angry, lonely, Tired...before acting on any urge....eat, de-stress, call a friend, take a nap.

Everyone have a great day and night!

Hi all and welcome newcomers!...I feel like I am running around like a headless chicken I have lost track of what I have bought and what I need to buy for Christmas...I am also cooking the dinner for 8 of us and again have lost the plot!
I only have a short window to sign in here so excuse the crappy phrase' touch base' with you all...
VitB Allen Carr was the book that I read and re read a dozen times before it finally sank in and I have now been nicotine free for nearly 4 months...
I am in for another 24 hours though it may be longer than that before I touch base with you all again...Ugh jargon!!!
