So today I am making attempt number four at quitting smoking. I have fallen off the band wagon in the past for various reasons, drinking alcohol can trigger my use, as well as boredom. Today is day one all over again, but I really want to quit smoking. I am getting married in July 2010 and would love to be smoke free completely when I get married. My fiance is supportive of me, and would love to see me quit, but ultimatly, I'm doing it for me and my health. Right now is a stressful time since I work full time, am taking three college classes, and obviously planning my wedding....but what I try to remember is that a cigarette isn't going to FIX or HELP anything, including my stress.
I'm doing ok! 22 days as of today!! I have been using the patch, I'm on the last step. I actually forgot to put the patch on Monday and I did ok then too. I don't want to get too zealous though, I know how easy it is to fall back onto old habits.
