Tried to be supportive......

Well I guess last night my nephew decided he was going to quit smoking cold turkey......
I got to my sisters this afternoon and he is a mess. He is like I need a cigarette.....I tell him no breathe he will be fine. I dont know if he ever went to get him some or not.
He was asking me how my quit was going......I told him I have my rough moments but for the most part....Its been good.
Ya know thinking of urges....I cant say I really have urges I think what the problem is I have moments I miss them. Its not that I really want them I just miss them. I cried earlier thinking of the wasted years. How much heathier I would be if I hadn't smoked all those years.
I know I cannot go back and erase time. I can only look to the future and now that my future will be cigarette free.
well all for today......Have a great weekend ya all......A great SMOKE FREE weekend!!!!

One day at a time.........

That's so hard, Tabatha, to want so badly to be able to help someone but knowing that they have to do the hard work. People can quit cold turkey when they have to, and I do hope he makes it. You are a beautiful example of life without cigarettes, and that's got to give him some hope. It sure does me!

You are so right about looking toward the future, and I'm glad that the urges are not so terrible. Awesome!

Hey Tabatha, I was so happy to log on today and see that you are hanging in and feeling good!

I'm sorry to hear about your nephew's struggles. What a rotten addiction this is. But I'm sure you are an inspiration to him, and when he's ready he'll get there just like we did.

MAJOR congratulations to you on getting this far. We're really doing it!!!!
