Share your quitting journey
I just read YoungAtHeart Nancy's smokemare blog and I had one last night too !
I was in my kitchen and my Dad was visiting ( RIP DAD ) my room mates pack of cigarettes were on the counter I took a cigarette and lit it up ( now understand all of this was done unconsciously out of habit ) I was not even aware of what I had done until I was about to take the second puff then It hit me I was so upset I could not believe I had done it all unconsciously and Now I had to go back to Day one on my Ex - Community counter !!! This set off another problem should I even go back if it meant losing 775 days of freedom ! I was in a dilemma because I felt I had not done it intentionally and had no enjoyment in the 2 puffs and no desire to continue to smoke . I felt so torn I had to be honest if I chose to come back and thus return to day 1 or leave the group I have come to love so much if I wanted to keep my days .....The dream ended before having decided what to do !
I did not even remember the dream until this morning when I was standing at the counter in my kitchen in the same spot where I picked up the cigarette in my dream ! I had such a rush of relief when I remembered and realized it was Just a bad dream !!!
I know I dreamed this because so often newbies get upset when they have to go back to day one .... I never want to have to do that...... no not ever !
In reality I would have chosen honesty and returning to Ex even if I had to go back to day One But boy I am just so glad I do not have to make that decision ! My quit is so very important to me and yes I guess I am very proud of the days I have of freedom ! Today 776 !
to ll of those who never want to go back just say NOPE and you will never have to make that decision !
