giving up isn't as hard as it seems. The nicotine craving goes after 24 hours it's just the fact that you think you want a cig that people seem to stumble on.
When you get the craving just tell yourself you don't want one at all and keep thinking it till the craving goes away.0 -

Day 3 - so far so good. Saved £15.00. I've smoked for over 40 years. Tried quitting more times thsan I've had hot dinners. Longest was when I was pregnant with No. 1 child (37 years ago!). Now I'm an oldie with grandchildren and have to set a good example. Also, spending over a fiver a day from my meagre pension on this habit. Need loads of support, but advise you all to try Boots own Nicotine gum. It's about £3 cheaper than Nicorette and, if you buy now you get heavily discounted prices on subsequent purchases of the gum, patches etc. until April. This makes the whole journey a lot cheaper (even for roll your own people). Set yourselves a goal to spend the £££'s on. Good luck all of us. We are doing it! P.S. Never done this before, so hope this contribution works OK.0
