If it was your last cigarette, you've likely had more than one.
I had my last cigarette at 7:15 in the morning to get dopamine after 8 hours without nicotine, nothing more. It was my plan to save one for the morning of my quit for that specific reason. (but I didn't buy the patch ahead of time or rush to the store for them as soon as I smoked my last cigarette)
I had planned to use the patch because quite simply, I had not studied nor learned anything outside myself about smoking before I quit.
What I did learn before I quit was I didn't need to smoke just because I thought I did.
I learned this by simply thinking before I smoked in the 4 weeks before I quit.
I simply told myself to wait a little longer when I wanted to smoke. That's it. I didn't count. I didn't get stressed out. I didn't set a quit date until I was at the counter KNOWING I was buying my last pack.
Do you remember your last cigarette?
When and Where did you have it?
What did it mean to you?
Was it a bigger deal than your decision to quit?
If so, How many last cigarettes have you had?
If you've had more than one last cigarette, had you really decided or were you just hoping it would happen again?
