I've discovered I don't like chicken nuggets. The smell of hamburger meat cooking makes me sick. I LOVE diet dr. pepper. salt and vinegar chips aren't as tasty as they once were. I smell EVERYTHING. I live in a house with 3 kids and numerous animals, that is not always a good thing!!
Still seeing my mental health doctor (that's what they are called on base here) and it seems to be helping me deal with things that I've ignored forever and just used smoking and drinking to cover. I've decided I can't drink at all anymore. I'd rather take my Rx meds and they don't play nice with booze.
It seems a lot of people slip up around holidays. I can totally understand that. I'm going to be extra vigilant so I don't have any slips. Easy enough, keep them away from my face. I noticed my truck smells great finally! no lingering stinky smells and that helps since driving was chain smoker time for me.
I wish everyone who smoked could just for one day feel what it's like to not smoke. To honestly remember what it was like before they got addicted. I know that so many people wouldn't continue smoking. This first month has sucked super hard at times and I'm pretty sure if I hadn't been taking meds I'd have never made it. BUT, I'm so glad I stuck it out and I'm looking forward to the coming months and then years!
