How hard is it?

Giving up smoking, they say, is harder than quitting herion?

Is that right?

I'm not actually having too much drama with it this time. DH says I haven't even really been cranky (well that's gotta be bullshit right there!!). I've just gone cold turkey. I didn't feel like I needed the patches this time.

It's day 7 of not smoking and I feel okay. I don't miss it. Mind you, I haven't had a drink yet. I also wasn't smoking much, maybe one or two a day - six a day at the most if I was at a party and there were others smoking too.

We have a gig on Saturday night. It's at a club in the country. It will be very smokey and there will be a lot of drunk people. I hope I cope alright and don't turn into one of them.

I'm sure i'll be fine .....

day seven and counting ..........
