I have to admit, if I had been able to get a hold of a cigarette today I would have smoked it. A bit stressful today I guess. Things at work, and life and jsut things. Good thing I didn't have a pack, and I resisted the urge to stop and buy one, but it was really hard. This is the first time I have really wanted a cigarette since I stopped. I've wanted the ritual but not the actual cigarette. Today I wanted the cigarette. But I got through it. No cigarettes today. Four days and still going.
It sounds a bit like when I want a piece of chocolate or ice cream... must have it... can't stop thinking about it till I get it... don't know why it's so strong... more than want, it's need... Except, yours is about physical and psychological addiction and mine is only psychological. But if one urge is so strong, two would be so much harder.
ReplyDeleteGood though that you were able to resist! Resist once and know the power is there to resist always... what's left is choice.
I'm so amazed at you!
