The stupid idea of stopping smoking!!!!! I tried and I failed. And I wanna try again, but Im just a wimp. I know I have to, but half of my brain (the not sensible part) is telling me different. DAMN THAT PART!!!!!! I have last three ciggies left in my packet and I will try really hard to stay home and not go out to buy more. Im usually ok till about three or four oclock in the afternoon and then the habbit kicks in and will nag me till I give in. Maybe some drastic action as banging my head against the wall or jumping out of the window might help (we live on first floor, so no serious injuries would probably appear) ;;But with the stress of everyday life (Im home all the time and dont work = housewife) is getting too much . Wish me luck because I will need it. Knowing myself, I will fail milions of times. But I have done it before (yes, I stopped smoking for about year and a half, dont know why I started again ), so maybe I can do it again.

PS.:  (edited about 6 hours after my first blog entry) Didnt last long, did I - already gone and got some more.

Good luck! It always seems like you have given up for good then life throws you a curve ball and you end up back on them again! My friend gave up for 2yrs then his GF dumped him and he was gutted and turned to drink and fags. Hes come through the worst of it but he still smokes but ive got him to go to the gym with me.

the tricks that worked for me: 1. Remember, whether you smoke or not, the craving *will* eventually go away. 2. Realize: You are never going to have a cigarette again. Take that idea and hold onto it. ACCEPT that fact into your very being. That is the key point - you havent accepted that basic fact. Kind of like being able to fly. Thats why I dont jump off buildings anymore. I accepted the fact that I would never be able to. My life is a lot less painful now.

Look, I went cold turkey off of chewing tobacco after 14 years on Jan 1, 2006 and havent had any nicotine products since then. If I can do it, you can too!
