Here is the big day! Nice to have so many to share it with. Woke up with no physical desire to smoke (had a whole pack last night between 8pm and 4:30am when i finally went to bed) it has always been painful to inhale in the morning. So here i am caughing and hoping i'll get through today.
One day at a time, right!
Hello, All.
It is now 9 something PM. My kids are home from swim practice, my husband is scheduled to leave at 6 am for a business trip, and I don't know what to do. I want to sleep yet I also want to finish my last cigarets (is this abnormal?). I'm worried about Liz...she was supposed to be my partner...Has anyone heard from her? I'm still so scared that I can't do it. Help!!!!!!!! I mean, really HELP!!!!!!

Hello, everyone!
I am getting ready to leave for work - have been up for about an hour and without a smoke. I can definitely say that I really want to have one. Coffee just isn't the same without a cigarette. I'll post again when I get to work. I have to drive my teenager to school now.
So far, so good, only for a few hours but it is the first time in 26 years.

I am on Wellbutrin and I do have some coping ideas but am certainly welcome to more. I'm determined - tonight will be the last day I will smoke in my whole life (okay, don't laugh at that, guys, maybe I'm wrong).

Thank you, Dune Dad. I guess that's what I'm doing. I am just smoking what I have left and then going to bed and waking up tomorrow smoke free. I'm nervous but still excited.
Thanks for your input. Everything helps right now.

Hello, All. I will do all those things (getting rid of smoking materials, ashtrays, etc.). I'm just worried now about Liz because we were were going to help each other quit together the same day and I haven't heard from her. Has anyone else?
Erika.

Liz,
I haven't heard from you. Are you ready? Tomorrow is our big day. I'm home alone now because the kids are at swim practice and am just going through what it will be like - of course I'm smoking. I'm still determined, yet scared. How about you? Or anyone else? Any hints for the night before? Tomorrow I will wake up smoke-free for the first time in 26 years...why am I still so nervous?

Hey, Liz. While you were having your last cigarette, I was waking up smokefree. You may be waking up now too. You're right - I'm on the East Coast. I've been up a few hours and I'll be the first to admit it is very hard not to have that morning cigarette. I hate it. I really want to have one. But I'm not going to have one. This is awful but I keep telling myself it will get better.
Let me know how you feel!
Erika
