Congratulations Jason and Welcome.

Everyone here is very friendly and there is always someone to talk to to get advice from or to just chat about life and stuff to take your mind off the cigs.

Come back and see us tomorrow morning and we'll be waiting.

Well done Jason. Where abouts are you in the World?

Morning.

Yup, I am in Saskatchewan Canada. It is 11:26am right now. Still smoke free, tossed all my ashtrays and lighters, hehe. I feel like total crap right about now. All I can think about is coffee and cigarettes, hehe. Gonna be a rough day most likely. Should be good though.

Glad that you have joined us! Great decision to quit smoking, that is wonderful. When you feel an urge just come on the forum and start typing. Remember that cravings only last for about 3 minutes and then they will subside. Keep yourself busy and stay strong :D We are all here for you!

welcome Jason, congratulations on making up your mind -> truly the hardest part!

Cravings can be a real pain, you just try and remember that despite appearences the biggest obstacle is not physical as your body is already benefitting from your decision right now and doesn't really miss nicotine that much, it's the brain the one that is craving smoke so be strong when you get those cravings, be patient because it's like teaching your mind that it does not really need any smoke - and you can do it ;)

Cold Turkey!

Well its 9:15 and I feel like I am gonna expldoe, hehe. Like I'm not sure what to do or what, kinda wierd. In a few hours it will be 24 hours. First three days is gonna feel terrible I figure. I am mostly avoiding everybody right now, lol. Kinda moody. I still can't believe cigarettes are still being sold. And they make Marijuana illegal! Jebus, cigs are the things that should be off the market I tells ya! Just another thing to prove that our governments are only interested in making profit than saving lives. Can you tell I hate cigarettes, hehe. <~~~makes me feel better to hate what I am quiting I guess, lol. Sorry all. :( ............................:)

I will tell you now that I developed a sweet craving and lightheadedness. It soon passes. After just a couple of days I felt really good. Now a couple of weeks in I feel great.

Hey Jason

Morning and welcome to Day 2 you're doing swell buddy!!!

The horrible crunchies do come and go in waves but I thought it was really helpful what Nosmoke4me wrote about them lasting three minutes - definately like a contraction when giving birth!!!!

Keep being strong and try and do things to distract you - preferabley out and about enjoying your beautiful country. I'd love to go to Canada - I heard it was the best place in the world - and just think you're helping to keep it that way now.
