So I am now at 70 hours of nico-freedom. Razz


I haven't had any BAD cravings but i'm getting the low down dirty nicodemon lies filling my head.

"If you go back to smoking we will lose weight first THEN quit"

"If you smoked you'd enjoy the summer much more, quit in the fall when it sucks any ways"

"Your friend is quitting soon, why not go back to smoking and then re-quit with him?"

To be completely honest at the time i was having these thoughts they seemed to make sense, looking back on them now while acutally typing them out makes me laugh.

....go back to smoking and then re-quit.... Only in a junkies head would that make any sense!

it really is like having a little devil in your head, isn't it? and the ideas sound so plausible at the time; that's how they get so many of us...

just keep on top of the junkie thinking; you're doing great! Smile

Pay close attention to all the posts above and don't listen to that mean demon, Scowling Demon . He doesn't have your best interest at heart. Stay quit!!

One thing I am focusing on is not smoking today.

TODAY I will not smoke.

Hi Moose,

That is what I liked about typing out my thoughts at Woofmang. Those Nicodemon lies loose their power when we type them out and see the demon is lying. Good for you. Keep making it for just today as that it the way those days add to a year, and more years, one day at a time.
