Day 11

I am on my second day in my old job environment. After yesterday's complete confidence in not having a cigarette, I still feel strong today. Everyone is very supportive. Maybe this because lots of people traditionally smoke in the music business, but many people have already quit at my work and know what it is like. I do feel like I am amongst understanding people.

There are only a few smokers left in the whole building. They really look like outcasts going off together into the street. I feel slightly envious of missing out on any jokes or gossip that might be going about, but even the thought of smelling cigarette smoke right now puts me off.

For those of you in the Lambeth area wanting to start a quit smoking group at work should try the 'Work Buddy' scheme. Have a look at www.findwillpower.com for details. Basically, it is a scheme that helps several people quit together. This is the best way at work if there are several of you. You can motivate one another. They'll send you a newsletter that gives advice etc. on quitting. Not only that, if you sign up, you get a set of rather fetching Will Power mugs!
