Mac’s Rule Of Three’s
From the moment you smoke your last cigarette… Know Ye This:
It will be 3 days before you can concentrate on ANY significant thing other than the fact you want a cigarette desperately.
It will be 3 days before you get a good nights sleep.
It will be 3 days before you can go a solid MINUTE without thinking about a cigarette.
It will be 3 weeks before you can go a solid HOUR without thinking about a cigarette.
It will be 3 months before you can go a solid DAY without thinking about a cigarette.
And you will NEVER, EVER, NEVER… stop wanting one.
It’s been over 10 years for me. And I will not lie to you. The smell of cigarette smoke still turns me on. Every time I walk through a cloud of smoke in a restaurant I’m gripped by the lust for a smoke. It passes quickly. It only lingers a moment, or two. But it’s there. And it’s real. And it will never change.
Hey… I never said it was going to be easy.
I have been a smoker for 20 years. I am going through a tough divorce from a sociopath that has been nastier that I ever thought possible. I really need and want to do something to just feel better. Better about me, my life in general and my reality as it is. This will help. The honesty is what I needed to hear.
Welcome Dian,
Quitting smoking is far and away one of the hardest things I’ve ever done in my life.
I’m sorry to hear about your struggles, but I’m very glad you could find some comfort here.
Hang in there… and remember… “The Best Revenge is a Life Well Lived.”
