SECESSION IS FUTILE

I've been smoking a pack to a pack and a half a day for about 15 years. Today's my first day without a cigarette. gently caress. At the moment it's just a matter of crazy will power and distracting myself with mindless entertainment, even though my entire body is tense and I can't walk anywhere without pacing around.

Edit: poo poo, I already gained 40 pounds by switching jobs without changing anything else, but I live in an awesome mountain area and maybe if I can breathe easy I can get out and hike more often.

Using the patch this time. They aren't kidding about the dreams.

Yeah, I take mine off at night. The first time I quit with patches I don't think I slept properly for the first week. Now I take them off 1-2 hours before I go to bed and put it on first thing in the morning. It makes a world of difference.

I actually enjoy it, since typically I never remember my dreams. Even a remembered nightmare is kind of cool once it's over.

My biggest problem is that I'm a fidgety bastard when I smoke, when I'm not, I'm intolerable with my bullshit.

I have a journal to write down my crazy dreams. I usually don't remember them and it's my favorite part of using patches.

I was going good three days in until personal bullshit reared its head and sent me straight to two packs a day this week.

So try again. Takes practice to quit.

Oh, I plan to. I'm going to try again tomorrow.
