Well i'm on day six & I have not touched a ciggie since saturday night. I'm 36 and have smoked since I was 14, I decided to quit as my partner and I are considering starting a family soon, but I soooooooooooo want a cigarette!! I am currently on patches & gum but I am still finding it hard as to be honest I don't know what else to do apart from smoke, it's been a huge part of my life for so many years. Just hoping that one day it will get easier

You know that money you used to spend on cigarettes? Put it in a pot and watch it grow! Or use it to pay for a new activity, take up a hobby or exercise, do something with the extra energy you have!
Sounds like you have made a good start so keep it up. I know you can get free support from your local Stop Smoking Services if you need it. I think if you can distract yourself with a new interest that will keep your mind off. Playing a computer game is a good way to keep your hands busy!
