Welcome

Hi Jay and welcome.

I have just quit today also.

Had my breakfast and now ripping my hair out for a ciggie :mad:

Hang out in here and we'll help eachother hu.

Good luck and remember...... ONE day at a time... or in my case at the moment... ONE HOUR at a time :cool:

I have been quit for 9 hours, 41 minutes and 26 seconds (0 days). I have saved £2.09 by not smoking 8 cigarettes. I have saved 40 minutes of my life. My Quit Date: 23/03/2007 00:00

cool

Hi mate,

Yeh we can help each other out that would be cool ! I have done the ceremony of smoking my last cigarette this morning and set my mind to never smoking again.

Must admit im struggling though as having coffee and no fag is a killer !!

Lets stick together buddy and we can get through the first 3 days then we will be on our way !!

Hi Seren,

Im not using any nrt ! Am gonna do it the hard way and go total cold turkey.

I actually quit last year for 6 weeks but got sucked back in grrr ! However i did manage to do it cold turkey and was actually ok so gonna do it again.

For me the first couple of days are gonna be the hardest but i know i can do it so just got to stay focused !!

WELL DONE for your 5 days too !! You must be feeling the benefits already ?

I just cant wait to finally be free of nicotine once and for all :)

Good Luck Jay!

I am doing this cold turkey also.

I gave up for 3 years but stated again last summer :mad:

I am determined to quit for good this time

HOORAY !!! Yeh we can definitely do this buddy !!

It may not work for some people but for me cold turkey is the way forward simply cos i believe yur body can heal itself and also if you use patches you are still putting nicotine into your body ?

Have you looked at the post with the list of all the toxins you take in when you smoke ? JESUS that scared the crap out of me !!!!!! :eek: :eek:

Another thing to .. think of this........

If you took the nicotine from one cigarette and injected it into you it would kill you in a bout 10 secs flat !!!

:eek:

Im planning on bein on here most of today to get through the first part so if you like we can support each other ?

Jay :)

Yes I looked at the crap they add to fags.... I can't believe we put that stuff into our bodies.

I want a cup of tea but scared as I know what I usually do after a cuppa :rolleyes:

I think once we get passed these next couple of days we'll have this licked... famous last words hahahaha

nsd_user663_1755 profile image
nsd_user663_1755

Yeh i know what you mean i want to eat breakfast but i know i will want a fag after !!

Im just gonna distract myself with stuff and tidy up and get rid of any ashtrays etc.

I actually dont have any fags in the house either which helps as the shop is miles away and i cant be bothered to walk lol !!

Do you have a games console ? Im gonna play jedi outcast on my pc as that distracts me too.

WE CAN DO THIS MATE !!! Just think we will be moving up the posts on here day 2 tomorrow etc etc !!

Hi Boudee,

Thanks for your support !! Must admit im strugglin a little although managing to keep the cravings at bay so far !!

I was wondering does anyone know if you can get herbal tobacco with no nicotine in ?

I only ask cos i would actually really like a joint to chill me out but i dont wanna smoke tobacco :(

nsd_user663_1755 profile image
nsd_user663_1755

I think that will help loads !! Am never gonna smoke a fag again but if i can have the odd joint and use herbal tobacco too i think that will help immensly !

Right im off to the shops shortly lol :D

If you took the nicotine from one fag and then injected yourself with it and you would die, how come you don't die from inhaling it??

I am a bit thick!:o

Hey you two!

Well it looks as though you two have things sussed, this site is a brilliant way of making you stick to your guns and not have a smoke!

I am on day 12 and even though I don't 'post' everyday I like to have a wee look as other peoples tobacco free days do help!

Also the support on here is amazing!

Anyway hang on in there you can do this! x

Sorry Ruby perhps i should of explained a little better, what i meant was that if it was possible for you to extract the nicotine from one cigarette in liquid form and then inject it that is when it would kill you instantly.

Im guessing the fact that we inhale it means its not being directly infused into our bodies ? But a more gradual process so our bodies can take it ?

I dont know the exact facts all i know is that smoking sucks and im not doing it ever again !!!! :D
