When I quit smoking tobacco, I waited as long as i could to have my first smoke of the day. Some days I made it very far, some days I lit up right when I woke up. Eventually I made it through a whole day.
It accelerated pretty fast after that cause once I got a few days under my belt, I felt positive reinforcement. Relapsing didnt crush my spirit, I could be so happy with how much time I “earned” last go around. Not bad that I failed to “quit”. This really flipped the script for me. I felt stronger as I kept trying rather then pulled apart and broken down.
If being hard on yourself worked, we would be perfect by now.
I’m currently quitting and I’ve gotten to the beginning of that point. It’s still hard, and today I’ve already started smoking, yesterday was a stressful day, but tomorrow I’ll try again. I’ve definitely noticed that it’s getting easier not to smoke.
