  • Congratulations LMTP - I think you just hit rock bottom :T

    Sorry - didn't mean that to sound exactly like that:o

    ...what I mean is that you have to have the darkest bit before the dawn. If you get through the weepy, depressed, 'I'm so stressed' 'woe is me' day then the only way is up :D


    Believe me vikki if you get through today you will wake up tomorrow feeling very proud of yourself and thinking 'nothing can be as bad as yesterday so bring it on!!!'


    Don't mean to sound preachy but you are nearly there I am sure :T :T :T

    You will get through this, I was like this on Sunday, day 5 for me but haven't looked back since. Day 7 today and it's so much easier, I don't doubt there will be other bad days but I know now I can get through them. Do anything to distract yourself and keep the thoughts off the fags, sing shout recite nursery rhymes if it helps it will pass.

  • You are so right peachblossom - once you have got through your 'worst day' it starts to get easier. I had another one at about day 10 - the loverley peeps on here talked me through it and I got past that one too :D

    Now I am on DAY 18 and even an awful day at work has just had me slap on a patch for a few hours and I am fine! :T :T :T


    Now I am off to meet my wonderful hubby in the pub to tell him all about my rotten day and how good I am for not even thinking about running to the shops to find my 'friend' :A


    I'll be back ;)
