11 months - One More MONTH TO GO

Im STILL quit.

But I am soooooooooo fucking stressed out.
Ive been toying with some thoughts.....( NOT GOOD !!!! )
Ive had a pack in my hands the other day outside of work while talking
to Roger (Co-Worker that smokes)

(Whom Ive instructed to kick my ass if I ask him for one)

Its funny, the smokers I know tell me...with their hearts....... "DONT
DO IT....!
Dont you srat again."

Its sad...here they're telling me...while still in the grips of the
slavery to nicotine.
When I saw that....it gave me some encouragment.

The BIG battle is over with..........now I battle to stay
clean !....but its not THAT hard to do........

Shit happens....tough times come.....and the EXCUSE comes up within my
throat to :GO AHEAD and TREAT yourself....I mean.,....after THAT shit,
YOU DESERVE to relax and have a smoke"

What a fucking lie from the pit of hell..........its tempting
YES..........but its a LIE......

EYES WIDE OPEN !

Don't even think about starting again! Hell, you've gone eleven months
and that's amazing, you can keep on doing without the filthy stuff.
Stick a patch on your wrist if it gets really bad, that's what I do.

Yep, I have been known to tell a kid who asked me for a light, for
example, "You know you shouldn't really get started on these things." -
this while I had one smouldering between the fingers of my left hand!

Don't I know it. I get this urge 2 or 3 times a day. But, if people like
you can go so long without the stuff, hell, I can do it too.

Steve! I am so proud that you have maintained your smobriety despite
all the crap that has happened to you in these 11 months. Your story
is one that really does show all of us that IT CAN BE DONE! Keep on
kicking butt and the tubs will be yours very shortly! We all did
discuss that you were not able to be with us at the gathering this
past Saturday and agreed that you really are an inspiration for us
all.

Now, do sit back and enjoy as The Original Yodeling Gnomes are heading
your way along with Horace, the Huffing Hogg, to sing songs of
smobriety to help you celebrate this milestone!

Steve, you've gone through way too much without cigs to give up now.
You are one of the strongest people I know here and I expect to
celebrate your OF status. I'm glad that someone at your job has
volunteered to kick your ass because I really hate to fly. )

Steve, i don't know what it is about making the 1 year mark, but i have
blown my quit at 1 year and some twice now

JUST SAY NO...................DON'T DO IT

get out the sheet on 'Junkie Thinking' and read it over and over again,
and remember that it's just the Junkie talking to you!

you are NOT out of the woods yet.......... hang in there!

I hear you Steve.... I sometimes feel like this quit is part of the
foundation that everything else rests upon.
And, you know what?
There's an excellent reason for feeling that way.
You hang on to your quit and your dog and your job.
The bed and shower will come.
