@princeinbalance: maybe this can help someone it there! :) as someone who was there, quitting an addiction is not at all easy, but it is NOT impossible. Of course, nicotine is something that alters your brain chemistry, and does play a role in how long it will take you to quit— but being gracious with yourself will help. For me, cold turkey was not the best way to quit, but it was the most effective. First— I had to slowly tapered off my final puff to where I would hit my puff as little as possible, or had days in between each hit. Then once it was done— I would deliberately choose to not buy one. And that’s there it began. Of course I still had my cravings here and there, and I think about it sometimes even now, but being clean is also a conscious effort/choice. If it were a part of you for that long— it’s okay to definitely have those thoughts come up. You have to be gracious with yourself then as well, or else you’ll make your life hell. Don’t demonize your thoughts— redirect them. • • • • • You got this— I believe in you. I genuinely hope this finds the people that need it, and are encouraged. I would hate to see any of my friends in a hospital bed :(( #selfgrowth #addiction #Lifestyle #addictionrecovery #princeinbalance
