Hardest day yet!...Struggling!!

The worst day yet! I started work at 6.30, by 8.00 was desparate for a cig.

Had some nicotine gum...not sure if it made me feel better or worse!! but I felt tired out, dizzy & totally down all morning. If I wasn't out in the middle of the forest I would have bought some cigs!:eek: working alone today so no moral support:(

At dinner time I sat under a tree in the sunshine & put Paul mckenna on my mp3. Made me feel a bit more determined & the fact that I can really taste my food now,put me on a high!! Ok all afternoon..got home to find my 2 sons & wife all at each others throats!! That didn't help me much, so I grabbed a cuppa & went & sat in the field with my horse!! Been struggling all evening, hoping tomorrows a better day :(

Hi ytene, sounds just like my day today, but each day we get through without caving in is another step towards freedom, if i tell myself this enough then hopefully will be easy to believe it!

im using patches and lozengers and have been thinking maybe i need to stop one of them but not sure which to go with,

It so helps to have the support from everyone on here and great that so many offer the support, sometimes think my oh is sick of hearing me talk about everything to do with not smoking.

well done on getting through a tough day and keep strong for every bad day there will be two good ones!

Some days will be bad some will be easy, and as time goes by you will find the that the bad days get fewer and the easy ones more plentyful.

Here's to a good Wednesday!

Thanks Tracy, Some days it feels like there are some benefits..But on others you wonder if it's worth it :( .

I dont know if the nrt helps or not!! yesterday it seemed to help loads, but I think it made me feel worse today!!!

:) Still we've all come this far...better carry on or we'll get a telling off from the others!!:D.

Tomorrow will be the best day!! (honest!):)

Ytene(Alan) and Tracy.... you guys just hang in there..... I won't lie to you, my first month I had 2 days I felt 'normal' and maybe a wee bit happy even.... the rest.... well, not so hot. I have had 4 days now in a row..... happy, content to be a non-smoker, NO.... HAPPY to be a non smoker. I called my mom daily (never wanting to be on the phone cause that was my major smoking trigger) and cried "I just want to feel normal again" and I do now...... except I am not just 'normal' I am now a non-smoker' which to me means healthy, non-addicted (having to feed monster every hour), smelling good, and richer :D and you know.... so much more..... so hang in there... the first few days can be tough but you CAN do it..... it is do-able. So hang in there!
