Good Morning

Yesterday why I do not know but struggled with urges. Was a beautiful sunny day. Think it is anxiety getting ready to move in few days. They passed quickly but came up a couple of times. Just kept telling myself I do not do that anymore.

You are nearly still in No Mans Land, I think, so don't be surprised that your impending  move, the change in seasons and that fact might awaken cravings.  You may need to pull out the tools you found helpful earlier in your quit and use them.  I had one of my more difficult days around 108/118? ..I blogged for help and made it through - but I was surprised when it happened.

Stay distracted!  Go for walks!  Come here and read!  Blog for help!

You got this!!

@jonimarie   Stay strong.  Those nic receptors don't let us forget.  A loud "I DON'T DO THAT ANYMORE" was sometimes necessary for me to say outloud to jerk my brain out of that thinking.  Distract those thoughts and be vigilant.  

Morning and happy Friday.  Got the laundry on early this morning.  Choosing not to selfharm today.
