good and bad

Feb 26, 2005 01:37

good news: I just found out about the photo software Picasa 2 and so far so good. I dig it!

bad news: I still WANT to smoke.

I am really glad I found this lj community for support. quitsmokingnownonsmokers always want to say that a smoker should stop smoking, once the smoker has finally quit, that's it,great it's over and that's it, soo not true.....AND ( Read more... )

deep breaths, nin! and now you can do that! isn't that great? here's a trick i read somewhere... when you really want to smoke... take a deep, long inhale and release it... repeat a few times. this will physically change your whole state. swear to it... it calms you and also somehow takes the place of inhaling smoke. try it! good luck, sisterlove! :)

it's so WEIRD!

Do you want me to send you that book? Do you think you are going to quit?
I do the inhale thing you mentioned, sometimes, but sometimes I forget. It is a good idea though.

You know people here don't really want to hear about what I am going through, they just want to say oh that's great, or keep it up, and then move on to another topic. I can understand why they would not be interested in the topic and I am usually ok having a conversation like that sometimes, but this is something I REALLY need to talk about. I guess I really need to just find someone here in my position.

yeah, i'm going to stop.. i don't think i need the book though, thanks. :) how's that working for you though? sounds painful! i'm sorry there's no one there to talk to about it. use your journal! i did when i stopped for that week, remember? i babbled and babbled and amused myself until i fell asleep and then babbled about wanting them some more the next day? yeah, it really helped.

When do you think you will stop?
What method will you use?

I don't remember you writing a lot, not too much anyway, but I do remember you writing about your firework dreams. Crazy stuff.

Thanks for the congrats :)

Wow, your hubby is 4 years smoke free, how exciting, AWESOME! Ok I have a few questions, if you don't mind...

1. What method did he use? patch? gum? rewards?
2. Did you act differently to help him when he first started?
3. Do you know if he still wants to smoke now?
