I went on a hike to beat this mornings cravings/nicotene withdrawels. An aggressive steep trail hike.
I pushed myself and hiked uphill as fast as I could. Each time I paused to catch my breath it helped me mentally. I left my phone and cameras home. I usually smoke when I use them. I’m trying to retrain my habits.
Smoking has become so engraved in every pause I take in life.
I made it about half way up the mountain. I enjoyed the scenery for a while. I focused on the smells of the forest. I know my senses will improves as they heal. I’m looking forward to that.
I’m home now. I made it past the store without caving.
I have been doing some painting to help keep my hands busy. It helps alot. I’m not leaving my place for the rest of the day.
I made it 26 days a couple of years ago. I started crabbing with a boat full of smokers. I have been smoking since.
I fixed alot emotional wreckage from the past since I quit drinking. Smoking became an even bigger crutch while I did that. It’s time to throw away the crutches!
Day one is going successfully. Thanks for checking !

nobody is happy everyday it’s not normal, it’s just that in sobriety we have to learn to live and deal with the different emotions instead of hiding our head in a bottle or a bag. Congrats on your 3 months BTW that’s brilliant, well done
