hows our Jan today??

[nsd_user663_2783]

hows our Jan today??

Had about as good a weekend as you Jude. I have never wanted a fag soooo much. I don't know why, I wasn't feeling down or had an argument with o/h (at least not until last night). Certainly gave that inhalator a bashing yesterday though. Feeling a bit washed out now but still haven't had a fag. Thanks for asking though, it really is nice to know someone's out there thinking about you other than family that is.

Nothing a stiff drink wouldn't put right though. I think you had the right idea with your wine Jude.

[nsd_user663_2743]

i heard or read somewhere that when we hit the 4 month mark , things get a lot easier, dunno if thats true, maybe someone who has been quit that long can answer.

we know lifes a bitch sometimes, but no ciggies! just wine

[nsd_user663_2783]

I'm 4 months tomorrow and it is a hell of a lot easier. Still think about smoking but definitely as something thats in the past, not as something thats threatening me now, if you get what I mean. Smoking is still something thats part of my life but more like a twat of an ex boyfriend that I often see and can't wait to get my revenge on than as something that is actually part of my life now... and what better revenge than being successful!

Hi CW & Jude - What I can't understand then is why I'm feeling like I do at weekends. I'm alright when I'm out with mum or at bingo, even in a pub, but as soon as I walk through the door I get these pangs. Don't exactly want to light up just get these pangs. Is this usual after coming off patches or am I just an odd bod.:confused:

PS - It isn't for lack of something to do as I am in the middle of decorating every room but as soon as I stop for a break and in the evenings the pangs start. Not continuously but it seems funny to me that I need the inhalator all of a sudden.

[nsd_user663_2783]

Thanks both - I have taken all you have both said in. I haven't wanted that fix today but I think its because Im at work. I will have to be extra strong willed at weekends but I will do it and I will have a read of that site John tomorrow in my lunch hour. Should have read it before. Doh!!! Fick or wot.

[nsd_user663_2783]

I keep banging on about these, but read 'tales from the quit' at woofmang.com, helped me tremendously and sure you'll get something out of them too, the links part also has some brilliant onward reading

Bang away CW - I will read tomorrow.

[nsd_user663_2743]

try some airways gum aswell, they help! (not as informative as CW but they do it for me!) lol

[nsd_user663_2863]

Hi Jan,

I've had quite a few quits that have gone when I stopped NRT of various sorts...none as long as you've gone, though.

This time, although I've used the inhalator, I seem to have been able to stay with the original determination to quit that I had from day 1. No wavering at all: I think, in large measure, because of being able to connect with others on this forum...

When I stopped the puffer I had a day or two of real misery (I mean feeling sad and hopeless sort of misery) and restarted. Then I started with a Bach flower remedy and stopped again about two weeks ago and I've been fine.

I think managing your quit at your stage is a bit like managing a long journey. You know the vehicle and the likely problems and difficulties by now and you can try different ways to safeguard and help yourself...lots of suggestions on here as you know! If something is not working, just go back to where your quiit is safe and rethink your strategy...There's nothing now that can threaten your quit..Really...nothing!!

All the best with :)it!

Thanks Bill - I feel a bit better today. Got in from bingo last night and never gave the inhalator or cigs a thought at all. I intend to beat this feeling and will. I am positive about that. I get loads of support from here and family which helps a lot.

Thanks again.

Oh (humbly bows head) - thanks buddie

[nsd_user663_2722]

Hi buddies

Still here

Glad to see you are still there too. x

[nsd_user663_2743]

hi Cat, nice to see you popping in xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

[nsd_user663_2722]

Hey you - yes - still around albeit not much . I have been really busy at work - travelling a lot - but I am now enjoying the trips more, as I am no longer craving cigarettes in the lounge on the flights etc - absolutely liberating! I never realised how the stress I was feeling when i smoked was actually due several hours' withdrawal.

Today is Friday so I am having a leisurely day at the office (let's hope it stays that way!)

I still think about smoking sometimes but I am not longer able to define the thoughts as craves as such. Very odd. I started to get rid of the weight gain (half way there!) and can really feel myself getting fitter by the week. Also was told that my hair was in great condition by hairdresser last week (take note girls - the smoke DOES affect your hair too...eek)

Have a great weekend Team

xxx

[nsd_user663_2783]

Morning Cat - Glad to see you. Couldn't agree more about hair. Just have this niggly cough at the moment which is due to coming off patches, although have been off them for a month. Bin using inhalator a lot last week so that could have something to do with it. Not using it now though. Hopefully this cough should have gone by the end of next week. If not its back to the docs for me I think. Just wish I had gone cold turkey now and then I would have got rid long ago. Oh well, onwards and upwards.

xxxxx

[nsd_user663_2722]

Jan - so sorry to hear about the cough. Are you sure it is not a throat infection? There have been a few going around this mont around me, it may be worth checking with the doctor if it doesn't get better as I do not think the inhalator would affect your throat?

Don't wish anything - you are quit and this is what counts whatever the method. xxxx

Thanks Cat - I did have a bad throat with loss of voice two weeks ago so maybe its come back. You are quite right of course I am quit and it does count. I went to bingo last night and everything was fine until a bloke sat at the next table. OMG did he stink of cigs to the point where I was starting to feel queazy. Was I glad when he went or what.

[nsd_user663_2722]

Yes - It may have come back and you should go back and check with your GP.

Yes - I know about the smells - horrid. Especially from people who have been smoking in the rain. I am still ashamed that I smelt like that for so long without realising...One of the downside of being a non smoker can be that you smell things better. Actually - that gived me an idea Will post on the question thread!

[nsd_user663_2722]

Thanks Cword

And YES - we are a great team. Another month gone next week - can you believe it???? it was like yesterday we were reaching 4 weeks!
