72 hours (I get by with (more) than a little help from my friends)

Ok, made it past the 72 hour mark, and boy this was the hardest day so far. I almost completely broke down and bought a pack, walked into Walgreens ready to buy one, and at the last second decided to get nicotine gum instead. I have been given so much support from SO many wonderful people, I couldn't let everyone down. Really mom, dad, Mike, Chris, Nic, Angelina, Loretta, Fran, Mariko, Aunt Karen, Donna, Anthony, Tom, Lisa, Nicole, Aunti Di, Grace, Dave, Jim Suzy, Vince, Catherine, Kathleen, Tony, Marando, Betsey, Derek, Angela, Marlene, Gina, Sal, Tracy, Susan, and so many more. I have to thank you guys SO SO much for the support, I couldn't have gotten through today without all of you, it really does mean the world to me.

Broke down (almost)

 I finally could not take it anymore and REALLY wanted to smoke today, so instead I went and bought the nicotine gum. I have not chewed any yet, afraid of having to go through the withdrawel process all over again. Not sure what I should do now, but at least I didn't smoke right?

Day 3

The cravings and withdrawal are supposed to be gone in 72 hours right? If not I don't know how much longer I can keep this up. I feel like I am crawling out of my skin, but I know that it's going to get better. I'm off my normal routine today, going for some training, so my mind will be busy with that, hopefully.
