Any suggestions particular to driving? I learned to drive at the same time I learned to smoke (though I mastered the latter much faster) and I'm realizing on day 2 how closely they're associated. It was below freezing this morning and I kept telling myself how wonderful it was to have the windows closed all the way to work -- which is true! Any suggestions or thoughts on breaking this association would be very welcome.
Fortunately for me I quit smoking in my car several years ago. At that time I relied on listening to music and singing along. When I quit smoking I also kept straws to chew on, Sour Patch Kids and something to read when I arrived early for my destination. That was always a smoking time for me.
I too have found that turning up the music and singing along helps A LOT. The stronger the crave, the louder I sing LOL. I have also found that when I go for those high notes now, I don't end up in a coughing fit half way through!
Welcome. You might try putting your state and town in the search box upper right (looks like a magnifying glass). But it looks, from your page, like your're in Nashville. So check out this link: Tennessee Quitters Never mind. When I just checked, it didn't look like anyone has been to that group and responded to anything since 2011. So, just put up a blog and tell us about yourself and ask if anyone else lives in Nashville. We had a reunion with the EX group there a couple of years ago. Head to The Best of EX for good reading to get you started on this journey. Cheers!
