Re: Need some support

Hi ya
I quit smoking 4 and a half months ago, the first and third day were worst, try to keep busy on these days, when you get a craving sip water, i also took to sucking lollipops, ( it gave me hand to mouth, especially when i went walking as i used to smoke outside) you may find you munch more, try to keep some apples cut up or prepared fruit ( this will help to avoid the weight gain) the nhs have brilliant online support so search the site.
Most importantly keep in mind the reasons you want to give up ( mine was the amount of chemicals i was intaking)

Occasionally i still crave, in fact the other day it got so bad i went and purchased a box of fags and broke one in half to smoke, after 2 puffs i felt light headed and sick so i threw the lot away as i dont like the taste anymore, and i have not had a craving since because I know i dont want one i know i dont like smoking anymore.
Good luck i hope it goes well, what kept me going was getting through day one, i said if i can go a day without a *** then i will stick to it, once past day 3 there is really no point in going back as the hardest bit has been done.
As i said good luck

Sugar free candies and LOTS of deep breathes to get through the cravings. Try to stay away from really stressful situations if you can and no drinking as they go hand in hand. Just know you can do it and if you make through the first few days you've got it beat. Good luck remember you can do it and DEEP breathes
