Hi Janet

Welcome on board and congrats on your quit so far you are doing really well. please dont give in now you are over the worse I bet tomorrow you wont feel half as bad. come and join us and we can give you support. look fprward to getting to know you. xxxxxxxxxx

There are 2 rules I try to remember...

1) Smoking does not make ANY situation better. The situation will not change, but you have smoked.

2) A crave will go away on it's own. Always. No matter how bad it is. Which makes smoking a waste of time and money.

I always found that confronting the crave in some way made it shorter. I used to write down how I felt and actually think about it. Once confronted for what it was (just an empty, slightly hungry feeling of "I want a cigarette") I was able to get it over with quicker.

Hang in there, it does get easier - I promise
