Alhamdulilah today marks my 2 month anniversary being smoke-free. Thank you lungs for not completely dying on me and giving me a chance. I honestly dont know what I was thinking. You were pretty much begging me for help, for awhile. I suppose I wasnt thinking at all, just numbing myself to whatever it is that needed to be dealt with at the time. Im glad I stopped lying to myself and faced myself with the truth. It hurts a little, to face yourself, but then its extremely liberating. I feel good now, on so many levels. I definitely recommend it and I promise it is not hard as long as you have a strong reason for doing so, believe in it and make some overall lifestyle changes that compliment this decision. What worked for me is faith, divine love, and working on my spirituality. I couldnt stand having these two clashing parts of me in one; a spiritual Mariam who smokes cigarettes. It felt so dysfunctional and fake. How can I say that I love God and have self love when I destroy this gift that was given to me, my body? These thoughts and feelings resonated so strongly that every single part of me just couldnt allow it anymore and that was that, cold turkey and havent looked back. There are definitely still temptations but a firm no to myself the moment the thought even pops up in my head is all it takes. Temptations dont last very long. They do come often though but go back to your why, be strong and youll be okay. God bless
