Day one has went awesome! I have not really even had a bad urge for a smoke today... and I smoked a pack a day till today! With a lot of help from the patch, sunflower seeds, and deep breathing I've made it through smoke free.
Congratulations! You've just inspired me. I learned some breathing/stress relief methods awhile back that can be used anywhere, anytime and work for me, too. Thanks for the reminder as I approach my day! 🙂
Thanks everyone, yeah I think my biggest problem with quitting was always the irritation and anxiety I felt and the patch has taken care of that for me so far, and when I do get a urge I just pray take a few deep breaths and grab my sunflower seeds. Keeping busy also helps a lot it seems like when I get the urges the worst was if I got bored. I tried to do stuff I don't normally light up when I'm doing like sewing, cooking, and playing with my daughter. Hoping I can keep this up my daughter told me if I bought anymore she'd rip em up because they're bad (she's 5 and a very bright girl) haha so since I have my bbygirl rooting for me I have to do it.
