Default where do all the cravings come from?

I woke up this morning with the first thought of wanting a cigarette.
I am at work now and I am not feeling any better. It feels like my
first day without a cigarette. All I can think of is I want to smoke.

/me misses her gummi bears as a smoke replace ment.

I know I am tiered, I haven't gotten enough sleep over the last days.
I am slowly waking up and realize that my life its not a movie but for
real. My mood is dropping ajnd I am just in a I don't care mood.

I try to keep busy as much as I can and avoid the smoking area, but it
still does not change the fact that I can't concentrate.Right now I
don't care about anything.

Bears don't smoke

Well lack of sleep is definitely the problem...
I guess keep posting and drink lots of water.
If your the praying type......
If not, I'll do it for you.
Is there a gummi bear delivery service in your area?

Carmen! I *like* David's idea of a GummiBear delivery service. Try
to get yourself some at lunchtime or after work so you have them to
rely on. I do think that sleep is part of the problem, so do get some
extra over the weekend. But to post and rant here as much as you need
and flash your meter! You OWN it!

I care about you, Bear! You don't smoke! How cool is that? Be patient
- you are recovering from a fatal addiction. Give yourself time to heal!

It does get better. Rock on!

In my opinion, the cravings come from our lizard brain. You know, that
irrational, subconscious brainstem type thingie that compels bullies to
bully, serial killers to kill, karaoke singers to sing.

I don't know where they come from, but I do know they go away if, and ONLY
if, you don't indulge them.

You are doing great, Carmen. Hang tough, don't puff. All you have to do is
not put a cigarette in your mouth. And then reward yourself. In fact,
reward yourself DOUBLE for all you've been through in the past month without
smoking!

ep ooooooooof

Little known secret.
All cravings comes from your nicodemon but he only has so many of them.
some are big motherfuckers and some are little teeny tiny twinges but the
good news is once you go through all he has in his wicked little shitbag,
your done!
he still hides a few little weakass ones for when your not looking but they
aren't nothing really. So everytime you get a crave count it as him having
one less to tempt you
