Hello all,
Well here I am at day 19, and still smoke free thanks to the wonder drug CHAMPIX. It feels sort of surreal to me that I have been able to refrain from nicotine products, as well as coffee - and everyone is still alive and well. I have given up both, and I am not experiencing the mood altering affects I thought I might. I have my days of feeling "down", but I think those are just the facts of life; there are going to be ups and downs and all around on this journey. Today is a good day...yesterday was as well. I am finding that when I experience a little stress, it seems to be a bit more exaggerated, but since I am looking out for this, I am able to control my reaction. I have been practicing a lot more of the deep breathing exercises that I preach about to my clients, and well, all I can say is that they DO work..now that I can actually breath.
So there you have it. I am still smoke free, everyone is alive, and I am conscience of the mood fluctuations but they are minimal and controllable.
Until tomorrow.... Have a great day.
