Im no longer quitting...

Im no longer "quitting".. Im a non smoker!

Week 2 is here and all is going really rather well! Im so tempted to smoke that one last fag though.

Im thinking i need a change of attitude. My withdrawels are minimal due to the NRT so im tempted for other reasons.

"1 last fag" = "start smoking again" i think.

From now on i just dont smoke. Full stop.

(btw typing this gives me some strengh! i think id have had the last fag if it wasnt for this board!!)

I am so proud of reaching the 2 week board.

For new quitters.. KEEP GOING! Not smoking is the BEST victory ive ever had!!

Good to hear you're doing well marc. 4 weeks is the critical time after which all the nicotine will have gone from your body, you should hopefully feel the urges are greatly reduced by then, but keep being strong!

Well Done !!

It's still going to be a bit of a rollercoaster ride but one you can hang on tight and not fall out

The mind likes to play a few last straw type tricks to get you started again, mr nicotine doesn't go quietly!

Keep banishing those daft thoughts and carry on up that fresh non smokers road

Well done,as you say ,nrt helps you deal with those other things.Nicotine will only take 3 days to leave the body once you stop taking it but do things at your pace.

Hi - you're so right with the old 'just one drag = smoking again' it helps some folk get through the first few weeks, cadging just a drag, but to me that would just be prolonging the agony....keep with it - you know it will go away you just have to be strong and keep reading on here
