Morning Mark, hope you had a good night and are having a good day. Just want to wish you all the best with your quit - wish I'd had the sense you have, would've saved a lot of heart ache!

keep it up mate even if times get tough.

cheers

Thanks a lot Steve

It's really inspirational knowing those such as yourself have managed to quit smoking after a far longer and powerful addiction. My problems seem minimal. These boards are really helping me along. I don't want to disappoint you all, and most importantly, I want to prove to myself I can quit for good.

I've made it through most of Day 2 now without a cigarette, the longest i've went for about a year. The cravings are quite horrific this evening, probably the worst they've been so far. Huge headache... Nicotine monsters chewing at my brain. However, my determination is also high tonight and I've got plenty to do to take my mind off things. As with all Sunday nights, I didnt get much sleep (about 2-3 hours). Relentless smoking on a Monday usually gets rid of that, so my yearning for a smoke is at a peak.

I havent used any nicotine replacements yet, and I don't think I want to.

I'm hanging in, it's hard of course but I can see the benefits already I'm going to go for a run tonight if I feel any more horrible, it'll hopefully clear my head.

The good news is, I'm exhausted so I can sleep most of the night away without worrying about cigarettes.

Come on Day 3!

Well done mate.. stick it out.. My little moto (see below) may not be noticed by most but it's a result of the realisation that if you don't reach for a fag you can't have one. It's an active pursuit not a passive one - I mean you have to actually DO something to smoke but if you don't do anything, you keep your hands in your pockets (figuratively or really) you just can't do it.

Hey, desperate times call for desperate measures!
