hi all,
So I'm reaching out as I really need to connect with others to get some support with stopping smoking.
Quick back story; started smoking when I was 13. I've been on/off ever since. I've had periods of 5 years not smoking when I was pregnant.
Smoking has always been the first thing I turn to when feeling stressed, angry, upset, bored, lonely, shocked etc...
Last December I stopped after a huge struggle. Very hard to stop.
This September after hearing ex-DH has moved on and met someone else I started again. It's my go-to comforter. Like a dummy!
The problem is smoking makes me feel terrible. Lack of energy, motivation, negative thoughts, congested cough, money, visciois cycle, it really affects me badly.
I would like to stop but finding it a struggle.
Any help? Support? Anyone else stopping. Is vaping worth it?
I definitely crave the oral hand to mouth comfort of smoking.
Gahhhhhhhhh!!!!!!!!
