I think quitting this addiction is like leaving a cult. One way or another, you have to forever leave 'The Compound' aka Addiction, and surround yourself with supportive people who can help you while you detox and change your thinking.
Here are a couple of deprogramming suggestions:

Good morning everybuddy!
Happy Monday to you

I owe,I owe off to work I go. PD day today - yeah me. Hoping the day ends early. Smoking will not be part of my day today or any day thank you much. Saying NO to smoking and keeping to my path along the Freedom Road. I offer my hand to the next winner joining me kicking ash to the curb.
Have a great day

Good morning world. 6:09am in eastern Tennessee. Been up for several hours. But must do the first things first. Say NOPE and get this day off to a good start.

Weather check. It's 66°. Small chance of rain this morning however the chance increases as the day of progresses. It will be partly sunny. And it is windy. Blowing at 12mph. It will be a nice day in Tennessee.

Today's tasks. Never ending laundry! Monday has always been linen day. Changing up sheets and towels. We won't talk about how... Show more

A Little “Tough Love” for Some of You Strugglers……….From Someone That’s Been There

Ahem

Most of the time I just post stuff in here because I’m thinking about it at the time, and writing out my thoughts helps me to stay focused.

The way I figure, people will either “get it” or they won’t ……..I can only hope that they do. If something I happen to write makes them think for a couple of minutes….at least long enough to get past whatever is going on in THIS particular moment?…well hey….that’s great. I love seeing people beat this addiction.

I KNOW what it could mean NOT to.

Anyway…….just a little something to think about if you’re struggling because this is something I think about myself sometimes.

Be honest with yourself

Have you been sitting on your computer for hours and hours (and hours) fighting with those craves and feeling like you just can’t make the next minute?

Well……..have you paying attention to what people are telling you in here about getting up and getting some exercise?…………or reading a book?……….or soaking in a tub?……………or doing some spring cleaning?………..etc….etc….etc.?

Or have you been sitting around doing nothing BUT concentrating on how much you hate the side affects of quitting?

Well you know……….that COULD be (at least a PART) of the reason they seem so overwhelming to you.

This isn’t just about quitting smoking you know………….its about taking control of YOUR life…….it’s about WORKING to make it better.

I can’t imagine anything harder than spending the whole day focused on nothing but cravings.

This is just one of those take it or leave it suggestions but you know what?

If you REALLY want to WIN this battle then do yourself a favour and put some real effort into the thing that you’re fighting for in the first place.

YOUR life.

It requires balance.

And you’ll find that’s MUCH easier to accomplish if you’re willing to be honest with yourself about how much time you’re spending missing something you’ve chosen to give up.

AND how much time you’re spending ENJOYING what that choice is bringing you.

You only get one life you know.

It’s goes by pretty quickly.

Are you going to live it or WISH that you had?

Good morning everybuddy and a Happy Easter to you!!!

Up and going for the day, but had a phone call from my son in Germany so I am late getting here. I am here to pledge and run as I am off to get my nails done. Smoking - saying NO to that and moving forward along the Freedom Road. I hold my hand out to the next winner joining me kicking ash to the curb today.
Have a great day
