Tomorrow is my quit day.
Hello all. My name is Kim, and I’m new to the board. Tomorrow is my quit date, and I’m incredibly anxious about it. I always told myself I would quit when I turned 30, and that was 3 months ago. I started smoking when I was 20. I just can’t imagine waking up and wanting to get out of bed without having my coffee and cigarette time. Drives in the car, having a beer,quit smoking, socializing, and breaks at work…how in the world will I do all these things? I feel like I am just going to be a basket case. My consciousness is polarized about all this, because at the same time I feel so excited to quit,quit smoking now, more ready than i ever have been before. I hate smoking and how i beat myself up about it. I want to feel free. I want to be able to breath! I want my house to smell nice. My skin will look better. My lungs will not feel so tight…I know this may be on the irrational side, but I feel like quitting could send me straight to the psych ward. What is the one thing that helped you all stay quit the most?
