Hello Club!!!!!!!
Dear Everybody,
Today is my one month anniversary, I have been off ciggs a month now.
I am feeling somewhat better but my lungs have a lot of recovery to
do. Lots of damage to repair, but am very hopeful now they will have
the opportunity to do just that. I have not done it all perfectly but
am convinced this time I will be able to stay off the ciggs. I decided
not to use the nicotine replacement stuff for me continuing to put
nicotine in my system seemed to trigger more cravings just kinda
replaced the ciggs for nicotine for which I am highly addicted
physically and mentally to the realease of all the chemicals in the
brain and the responses that are so significant to the addiction.
However if it works for others I would not say my way is the best
Everyone has to decide what will work for them, including the
shopping. Just wanted to let ya’ll know one month is very significant
for me and am feeling so much better besides the growing pile of money
I am saving for a shopping trip. LOL—– Susan

Hi Susan,
Congratulations. A month is a tremendous milestone.
I’m glad you’re feeling that this is your last quit. Being a month off of
nicotine, you’re free of the chemical addiction and your body can start to
heal. The habit, however, may take a while.
Just as a bit of info to tuck away in case it’s needed, quitters come to
cognitivequitting at all stages of being quit. Some have come weeks,
months, in a few cases years after they quit smoking. They came to deal
with the habit of smoking, with smoking urges. So if you ever feel the
need, it’s never too late to set a timer.
Again, congrats on your first month,
Steve
