Cognitive Quit Smoking

Hi!
Just wanted to introduce myself to all of you. I have visited the
cognitive quitting site many times and have recommended it even more
to others. I quit smoking 10/29/01, and have not had one puff since.
I can honestly say that I am feeling good, the quit is going well, and
I have the most positive attitude I have ever had in any other quit.
Thanks to ddsteve, and the cessation forum at about.com, I have
learned to pay attention to the process of quitting, and am actually
enjoying the ride, so to speak at this point!
Steve, you were actually one of the first people who responded to my
whining at the about forum, and helped me look at myself more
critically in terms of what sensations were really asking to be
addressed at a given moment. As smokers, it takes real effort to do
that, when the response for everything in the past was always to
smoke.

I feel much more healthy! It’s amazing how easy it is to ignore your
health when you’re sucking down so many chemicals–it’s denial, plain
and simple. Now that I don’t have that guilt, I’m much more
interested in my health. So many benefits…!
I look forward to getting to know some of you! Take care, Terry
