Emer’s Story On Quitting Cigarettes….Week 4
Well Folks,
Week 4…
I am now starting my 4th week off Cigarettes without any Nicotine replacement products. Im not saying they dont work for people Im just chuffed that Ive gone this long (cold turkey) and know that Im getting any Nicotine in my system. I have a had a few ‘oh god’ moments like on a friday when I finished work and my first thought was a cig and then I remembered that I couldnt and I actually felt slightly down, but I knew it would pass, and went food shopping and it did pass.. Im chuffed I got through the weekend again without smoking…
Good luck to everyone giving up. I was a 20 pack a day smoker, sometimes more..I used to set my alarm clock at 7.30am so I could have a coffee and about 4 cigs before getting my daughters lunch ready for school (mental, I know)..and then proceed to ‘reward’ myself for nearly every thing I did to have a cig… I know everyone says it but after 23yrs of smoking, If I can do it, seriously ‘ANYONE’ can..
Best of luck.
Emer












Well done Emer it is a credit to you. Keep up the good work and take it one day at a time.
Kudos for you for four weeks of being smokefree! If you have specific triggers for smoking (like seeing the coffee pot), you can put a picture of your daughters there to remind you of why you’re making this change.
Keep up the good work!
