Dear Bettie! Thinking about you and about your Thursday date with health. Nothing to fear but fear itself! My withdrawal symptoms were restlessness and sweating, primarily. Making the decision to quit is harder than actually quitting for the most part. I am going to make a long list of things to do so that I can be prepared if an urge hits me. I am sleeping much better Bettie since I won’t let my dogs sleep in my bedroom anymore, halfed my sleeping medication, and am no longer smoking. I wake up so much less tired. And I now go to sleep at 11:00 pm instead of 1:00 am or 2:00 am. I’m going to be excited for you come Thursday, which by the way, is a great day for you to quit, as you’re on a day off. I have to agree with you that accountability is the best way. Carole
