Congratulations on one month! Those blanks in your time are truly a gift. But everyone seems to experience at some level, missing a "reward" another person on this site described it as book ends on every event of their life, nicotine before a task, nicotine after. But you have the right mental game in mind thanks to your education here. If it takes 6 minutes to get your nicotine and you do that 20 times a day, that's 120 minutes of freetime you didn't have before.You are no only regaining a great chunk of life in the end game by becoming healthier, but also immediately. What can you do with two hours a day? Take a college course, Lean to play an insrument, join a sports team, take a painting class, start a project you enjoy, plan a mini vaction or a bigger vacation (you also have more money now and you won't have to plan around replenishing nicotine, always wanted to scuba dive....plan a way to do it!
My quit meter says I have not smoked in 2 years 3 months and 2 weeks and 2 days; I have saved $4,809; I have saved my vital organs from having to endure and fight off the effects of 16,798 cigarettes. I always thought the money would probably astournd me most. But it's all those nasty cigarettes that I have literally saved my body from having to endure and the horrible assault it was having to overcome hourly, daily, monthly....wow!
One puff would be too many and a thousand would never be enough!
Keep up the great educated quit.
You can do this!
