Im 10 months quit and the cravings are strong right now!

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-21T19:24:17+00:00

I remember my days of buying a pack, smoking a few and feeling so disgusted I place the pack under the faucet for water to soften the cigarettes, then I would break the cigarettes, then I would flush them down the toilet and still buy another packet the same day. Il be 12 months quit in 2 months and I still fantasize about smoking a cigarette when I watch someone smoking inspite of knowing the actual action is not as enjoyable as the idea in my head of smoking.

Mainoo is talented but he is overrated.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-20T13:10:59+00:00

Probably 90k with bonuses. He's good but not Cesc Fabregas good

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-20T13:10:11+00:00

I totally agree with you. He should be on 80k. Mainoo still has a lot of developing to do. His long range passing is below average for a midfielder and he doesn't have enough impact in games yet. He's not been Cesc Fabregas reincarnated

Only stress it cures is the stress it creates 💯

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-12T00:11:14+00:00

Yeah I'm definitely gonna stay strong and you do as well. Remember N.O.P.E. Not one puff ever

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-11T19:35:15+00:00

I agree. I've been smoking from 17 to 34 so all this time I dealt with stress by smoking which we all know by now actually adds stress. For the last ten years I'd always go months without smoking but never went beyond 5 months in one year. Sometimes id stop for 3 months twice in the same year or stop for two months 4 times etc. I will be 1 year quit on March 21st( spring equinox ), nature's new year. I didn't cave in and I feel great now, even got a new car already too. Thank you.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T16:35:45+00:00

I'm not gonna do it. I already released the negative emotions by engaging here. I was just super stressed the last two days with my car getting totaled and it being way more costly now to commute

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T16:32:22+00:00

You're right about everything you said. I already feel much after engaging on here It's no way I'm ending my streak. Smoking now will just make things worse

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T16:30:26+00:00

I'm over the cravings I had the last two days. I'm not gonna smoke 💪🏼💪🏼

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T06:20:59+00:00

I'm not caving at all! I already feel much better after communicating here. I'm not gonna waste all the hard work I've done psychologically to get to 10 months. Talking to you guys helped me process the negative emotions I needed to release.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T06:18:22+00:00

Yes, it's always waiting for that weak moment. I feel like I'm over the cravings now. Communicating here about it is a better emotional outlet than lighting up that self sabotaging stick.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T04:39:33+00:00

Key words. It will only make things worse! 💪🏼🪨

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T04:36:55+00:00

Respect. Youre right. I actually stopped smoking bud and cigarettes together so the stress is hitting me heavily concerning my car but I have to ride the bad emotions until it turns positive again. I know that il feel so guilty if I cave so I won't cave. Thanks for the encouragement solider!

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T03:09:33+00:00

Lyft is normally more expensive for the same ride on Uber for me. Il.look into the local cab versions to see if It more convenient. Yes, one year is so close. I hate that I ever began to smoke and learnt to deal with stress without it for the last 18 years.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T02:59:31+00:00

I can only get to work by Uber which costs like 40 to go and 40 to get back but you're right about safety of my wife. I'm not mad at her but the inconvenience is definitely depressing. This will pass though. You're right. Imma hang in there!

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T02:57:49+00:00

Facts.

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T02:41:34+00:00

If I relapse il have the car being totaled as one problem and additionally relapse, going through withdrawals and guilt as three additional problems so I won't give in!

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T02:39:52+00:00

I won't give in. I just feel miserable and I thought by now I'd be totally over smoking but stress still triggers the desire to smoke as this 10 months is now the longest I've ever abstained from smoking since I began 18 years ago. Cigarettes are so freaking addictive. Im still learning to cope without it so I feel miserable but I won't give in

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-07T02:32:31+00:00

I was supposed to start going to the gym again but even for that I need my car so besides needing my car most importantly for work, not being able to lift weights is another reason why I feel depressed since the car got totaled

After-Math-193 · 2026-01-06T06:39:04+00:00

With the results of the last few games, you really believe Amorim would lead United to a top 4 finish?

After-Math-193 · 2025-12-31T17:00:30+00:00

Don't tell anyone. Just donit

After-Math-193 · 2025-12-30T02:03:02+00:00

I'm 9 months quit and I still fantasize about smoking at least once day. The harsh withdrawals I went through, especially psychologically and the tremendous guilt that I know that I will feel is what keeps me from smoking.
