Hi everyone- I have been out of touch for about a week, I quit smoking about a little over a week ago. I have slipped up a couple of times. I am doing it without nicotine replacement therapy. I am sick, with a sore throat, earache, and coughing up yuck, and fever. Im not sure if this is a result of quitting or what but it was definately a trigger to smoke a cigarette for me. So I caved in and I did, but you know, smoking that one cigarette only made me want another. So I did that one too. Talk about feeling like a failure. What a bummer. Two cigarettes yesterday, and all the crappy guilt today. I am going to beat this thing down sooner than later, I hope. But I make excuses to have a cigarette, justify in my own weak mind how it is okay. I have been feeling an empty spot inside of my stomach, its not hunger because food does not fix it, Its sickening to me, it feels like a craving I cant satisfy. Right now I am alone in this as I do not even have my phone back on for txt support, but that will change tomorrow when I get paid and I can get atleast txt support. I enjoy reading everyones blogs, but I cant even do that from just my phone, Thanks everyone for your support I appreciate it, This website is helping me through this! Does anyone know what to put on these nasty wrinkles ( smoking caused these ugly things ) to help them heal? or will they heal? Thanks everyone.
