Okay. So I have been off cigarettes for 13 days, using Chantix for almost 21 days. I have been allowing myself 1-2 cigs a day as Chantix said was okay. Well, actually it said you could continue to smoke from day 8 to day 35 on Chantix. So from day 8 to now I have been having one or two a day. I feel like I am doing really well! The cravings are not as bad as they were at first. So...having made this decision, I also decided that after 2 weeks of allowing the cigs that I would stop all tobacco tomorrow on the 14th day quit. I feel kind of anxious about it. I promise myself and you all that I will get all the tobacco out of the house. Remove all rolling papers etc. that I have been using for the 1-2 rollies a day. If it is out of here, I am not going out in the damn 5* weather to get cigarettes! Besides, I don't do that anymore, right?
I love the freedom of driving past a gas station knowing I don't have to spend another $14 for those horrid things. That I don't have to leave dinner and stand outside the restaurant in the incredible cold weather and smoke while missing the juiciest (no doubt) bits of conversation. I love not being a slave to smoking after every task I accomplish! And man...am I getting stuff done! It is awesome.
So tomorrow is the total quit day! I am exicited! Wish me strength to make it happen.
Thanks for being there for me. Not sure how the friend thing works. Can someone explain that to me?
