Day 15. Help.


This no smoking thing does NOT seem to get easier. It's 11:05- Monday the 15th. Despite the patches I still fancy a smoke.
Although I could just have "the one" I am not going to.
I DO want to stop and I suppose after all the years I have smoked, I have done well. But I don't like the feeling of constant yearning.
Perhaps I am being impatient, perhaps I should just go with the flow. Let the feelings pass. I suppose that if I am really honest, it is getting a little easier, even if I did say it wasn't at the beginning of this page.
Also, if I continue to be honest, I would be very happy if I could manage to just smoke 3 cigs a day. But I tried that, did very well at first but then crept slowly up to over 10 a day. That happened about 3 years ago. In the end, I suppose it would have been about 15 daily. Sometimes more and sometimes less.
I notice how much people who do smoke, smell of stale tobacco / smoke. Not that I am judging them, how can I judge anyone? I used to think that a toffee and a spray of perfume or something like that would cover up the ciggy smell. WRONG!
Please wish me luck. Thank you. x
