well it seems like the last few days not only have i been messing up my skin here and there, but really havent been trying hard enough to stop. i think that just messing up is okay but to be too unfocused to remember to try for like four days is a bit much. i would feel kinda dumb trying to say i was on day twenty-whatever of zt after that. my skin is not too bad at all and i thankfully have my mirror covers back up again, but i think thirty days is too much for me to shoot for right off. i think zt is the best idea, but im going to have to take it slower. of course, this trial experience has really taught me a lot. im learning HOW to do zt and what works for me and let me tell you i have learned a hell of a lot. im still trying to come up with the right zt plan for myself. im thinking about starting off with a three or four day goal or a week. im not sure. i just think i would be much more successful with a string of small increments. i'll be thinking....but what REALLY helps is having you guys to do it with all in step. you people who are still going for 30 days are really fukin AWESOME and i am totally behind you. but if anyone would like to join me in smaller goals, let me know. rabbit.

hey, i'll join you! i need smaller goals too. 4 days at a time is perfect. i make it that far and then regress on day 5. i'm hoping that by restarting the ZT plan every 5th day, i can break that cycle.
i think scarlet's group, which i have just started, focuses on weekly goals, and i'm afraid even that might be too much for me. but it will depend on what the goal is.
so here's to the next 4 days of ZT!

hi rabbit, i'm sorry i haven't been around. did you start without me? i hope so! otherwise, i'm ready to start anytime. in fact, today would be great. a little bit about me... i live just outside Boston and i work downtown, pretty much right on top of the Big Dig. i've been here for about 12 years, and before that i lived in Chicago. definitely a city girl. i've been married for a little over a year and been a homeowner for a little under a year. those are my 2 big adventures these days. i'm average height and a bit on the skinny side. so is my husband. our cat is the opposite: taller than average and way overweight. he balances us out.  i'd write more but i have to get to work. have a great day! |

hi there, rabbit. i know what you mean about getting your bearings. this ZT thing just isn't working for me, and i'm feeling lost and confused. the first week was great -- i was focused on quitting and feeling really good about things. but it's gone downhill since then, and i don't think ZT or any of the other tricks i use are going to be enough. i've decided it's time to get professional help. luckily, a hospital near my office has an OCD clinic, so i'm going to check them out.
i wish you well in your efforts to quit, my friend! i look forward to hearing about your progress, and i'll try to keep you apprised of mine.
xoxo
