To all those with terrible craveings, can't think straight, think a cig will fix it. Can i just say seeing as though i have just been there, done it, you will feel 100 times worse for giving into the "DEMON", i had done nearly 4 days, and now just reverted back to square one!, Simple as that! Wasn't worth it, didn't even particularly enjoy it! Made me all dizzy!

Well done Kimbo_Kim,
I passed the test last night as well. Was not offered any ciggy's and the fact that everyone knew I had stopped meant that the ones that were smoking seamed to cut down on the amount they smoked.
up to 245 1/2 hours now.

Hello everyone,
I'm getting on really well. After a miserable few days I've turned a corner and seem to e coping just fine.
Apologies I've not been around much, I'm back at college now, so less time on the internet, but I'll drop in where I can. I'm so thrilled at how the thread is going, which is why I've thanked everyone, the support and knowing we're in the same boat has made such a difference to my mental attitude this time round.
I went and bought myself a new purse this morning for a tenner as a little traet for doing a week and a bit and I'm still £27 in profit! I feel rich and money isn't disappearing from my purse anymore. I recommend everyone thinking of a £10 treat and getting it as a reward, I feel on top of the world today.
Keep at it everyone, you're doing brilliantly!
Y&R xQuit smoking 18/08/070 -
Good morning all,
Had several "critical" moments over the weekend where I'd picked up some cash to go and buy some cigarettes but managed to resist. Had a really lousy nights sleep last night, I've heard several people comment on that, does anybody know why stopping smoking should affect your sleep patterns?
It's definitely a lot harder to quit than I'd ever imagined and think I'll read the Allen Carr book again just as another weapon in my !!!!nal.
How did everybody else get on??0 -
well ive been keeping busy this weekend taking the hedge down in the garden and putting fence up, so this has been a good distraction, not really thought about cigarettes till the evening when i sit down, but still resisting and been smoke free for over a week now and saved £30
which is great! Yes ive been having bad sleep too and have also been really bunged up and felt at some points like i had flu and cold kind of symptoms, also coughing up loads of gunk, wont go into that any more, but generally feeling quite ok, how is everyone else doing? 0
