I've had several instances when I think a cigarette would make everything better and I'd "just start all over tomorrow". Since things are not going the way I want them to... or I feel a little depressed, the first thing I think about is a cigarette. This is a crazy addiction! I have not given in and I just keep telling myself that I'm going to feel weird for some time...... it will pass, I'm sure. I quit once for 5 years and I don't remember it being this tough. I bought a new bike for Xmas and I've been biking when the weather is above 30. It's amazing how much damage I've done to my lungs when I go up the hills..... ugh! But I got up one yesterday and even though I thought I was going to explode.... it passed quickly. It's kind of the same with the urges for cigarettes.

Congrats on being able to ride a bike again. That's a major accomplishment. Also, congrats on remaining strong and not letting Laughing Demon convince you that smoking would solve problems. It doesn't!!! Hang in there. You're doing great. Smile
