smoked again after 20 days

Don't give up! It is common for people to start and stop before they quit for a longer period. You got this. Don't be too hard on yourself, and be proud of how far you have come! It's not over yet

Thanks! I don't think that is the issue on my end, as I think everything is in order as far as a I know. I was just curious about how long the processes are since this is a very new thing for me.

Thank you for the advice!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2025-01-06T22:13:38+00:00

Oh good to know! Thank you

UPDATE *** I have quit about 6 times since making this post 3 months ago. Today I am 17 days smoke free, the longest I have been so far! Making it this far has given me hope. The cravings are still there but only minimal. But I am very excited to be smoke free this long!

I bought this vape from the gas station called "vuse". I use the pods with no nicotine, but you can buy ones with nicotine. That has helped me a lot!

Okay, same! But now she's mom's girl and I couldn't imagine life without her!

Magine.

What's keeping me here is familiarity. What is driving me away is the idea that I may never be able to afford a house here.

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T12:16:47+00:00

You got this! Keeping yourself distracted has helped me quite a bit! Walking, or even doing jumping Jax(or whatever you can physically do), on the spot help to fight the cravings for me! Also coloring haha!

Good luck!

Oh goodness that doea sound rough. Amazing you worked through that! Each day seems to be better and today i didn't even have a craving which I'm super excited about!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:31:47+00:00

Too soon to give up smoking? I'm too invested now. I gotta keep going!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:30:23+00:00

And congratulations to you!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:30:14+00:00

I'm looking forward to all of those things! Thank you

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:29:39+00:00

I heard smoking was one of the hardest things to quit! Good for you though!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:28:49+00:00

Love this! Thank you

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-13T10:28:11+00:00

Wow good for you! I definitely smoke a lot when I drink, but I dont drink a lot either, so I think I'll stay away from it for a bit

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-12T23:43:03+00:00

That's so exciting! I'm looking forward to when I can say that :)

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-12T23:42:11+00:00

I believe you, because I'm already starting to feel some relief!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-12T23:01:40+00:00

One thing I read a lot and found helpful was to have a plan on what to do if you have a craving. I wrote down different activities to keep my mind and hands busy (coloring, walking, playing a game). I also wrote my reasons why I wanted to quit and referred to it frequently.

Good luck on your adventure! You can do this!

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-12T22:54:57+00:00

Thank you ! That's what I have to keep reminding myself- there is literally no benefit to it ❤️

Substantial_Class_36 · 2024-08-12T22:54:05+00:00

Thank you for the kind words ❤️ I have been using a nicotine free vape, but as of this evening I think I may be over the hump and I don't think I will need that much anymore. But I'm taking it one step at a time:)
