I think this is where I am supposed to be?

Interesting little bit of info for anyone (especially the new guys) coming to KTC.

I am not at day 202 of being quit. Over the past 100 days I have been in and out of KTC as my schedule allowed, not putting as much effort as I used to. Don't worry, this isn't turning in to a cave post. I just wanted to drop by and remind myself, when I am looking back on this, that the cravings don't dissipate. Last night I found myself trying to say "oh, don't worry, one won't hurt. It's better that you use tobacco than *some other substance*." It was substantially easier to recognize a crave and not give in than it was at day 1, 10, 20, or even 100, but they still exist.

Always be on your guard and listen when you hear that devil whisper in your ear. Realize who is talking, and ignore them.

ok if not day 202, then what day is it for you my friend????? speak now....

:huh:

Oh darn it. I meant to say I am now * at day 202. I have no idea what's been wrong with me lately. I have been dropping things, slurring/mixing up words, and just out of it. Haha, no worries, I am safely at 202

'crackup'

well then quit on....or to mix up the words...on is quit is not it....

dammit now I sound like yoda...

well done.

First Stop for the DuckFip Hall of Fame Train is New York where we will be picking up a professional student that started using smokeless chewing tobacco at the ripe old age of 18. Eor2012 said he his preferred brand of poison was anything, my kind of man! He plans on celebrating this milestone hunched over the books doing the scholarly task of homework; great job Eor2012 at 100 days.

Secondhand Smoke

What is secondhand smoke?

Secondhand smoke (SHS) is also known as environmental tobacco smoke (ETS). SHS is a mixture of 2 forms of smoke that come from burning tobacco:
Ã,• Sidestream smoke Ã,â€" smoke from the lighted end of a cigarette, pipe, or cigar
Ã,• Mainstream smoke Ã,â€" the smoke exhaled by a smoker

Even though we think of these as the same, they arenÃ,’t. Sidestream smoke has higher concentrations of cancer-causing agents (carcinogens) than mainstream smoke. And, it has smaller particles than mainstream smoke, which make their way into the lungs and the bodyÃ,’s cells more easily.

When non-smokers are exposed to SHS it is called involuntary smoking or passive smoking. Non-smokers who breathe in SHS take in nicotine and toxic chemicals by the same route smokers do. The more SHS you breathe, the higher the level of these harmful chemicals in your body.

I got this from cancer.org

Yea,,, i smoked a few 1000 cigarettes growing up. The sad part,, I never held one of them. I'll be sure to thank my wonderful parents for this. How sad!! Glad to be quit with everyone that says screw big tobacco.

SON OF A B#$#%!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 'bang head' DAM YOU BIG TOBACCO!!!

For those of you who read this....

I know this has been more of a journal for myself, and this entry will serve as that, but also the answers you provide.

The other day my family had a get together. Well, some of the family smokes so there was exposure to second hand. I noticed the day following that I was rather cranky, sort of how I was early on in the quit. Prior to this event I noticed my mood improving. So here lies the question/concern:

Does my exposure to secondhand put nic back in my system for another three days? I didn't stand there inhaling it, but throughout the night I would get wiffs, and at one point I walked through a cloud of smoke (unintentionally). Don't worry, I didn't cave, and it's not like my cravings were as strong as they were in the first days, I was just moody and foggy.

We all must suffer fools. They can not be avoided.

I was never a smoker (have really bad asthma) and being near it always caused issues for me. I think smoking is even more vile than dipping as its stench stays with others in their hair and clothes and gets into their lungs. I don't know that walking through a cloud of smoke can alter your mood the next day, but since you are aware (think that) it altered your mood use it as a learning tool of the powers or nicotine.

Yes, secondhand smoke contains a measurable amount of nicotine. It shouldn't throw you into full-on withdrawal, but there is zero doubt that you took in a bit of nicotine.

I'm pissed off for you.
