Hiya,I quit on monday-the first two days I found easier than i expected but now I'm struggling-specially when i first wake up and in the evenings.I'm using the gum,inhalator and patches(the patches i may not get any more as they seem to come off easily,specially at night)

Hi Lyn and welcome to the forum.

Great stuff quitting on Monday. 4th day now and hopefully you'll be finding that it isn't as unsurmountable task as you originally thought. You seem to have a few quit aids going there and whatever works for you. I was wondering why you felt the need to wear a patch at night. Afterall, we don't/didn't smoke in our sleep.

Some of us on this site advocate read, read, reading and educating ourselves into a successful quit. You can find very informative links in my sig, but don't feel you need to read all of them all the time. Just take bite size chunks if that's what you wish to do. On top of that there is a huge amount of posts on this forum which will help you get an understanding of a successful quit. Can't forget the wealth of experience that new and old members carry around with us.

Keep posting and asking questions, rant, laugh....basically feel completely free to participate in the forum and add to this wee community. When I state 'wee' I don't mean toilet habits - BB take note please :rolleyes:

Enjoy,

Cav

Hi Lynn

Welcome to the forum and well done on the decision to quit possibly one of the most important you will ever make and you will be losing nothing but you will regain control of your life and that has to be good

You will find all the help and support you need on here as we all help each other just like a family we are here for you every step of the way cheering the good days and sympathiseing with the bad but the good far outweigh the bad

Read the posts on here you will find a lot of tips and advice and in the signatures of a lot you will find links to other sites just click on them Here are 2 I find very good to start you off whyquit.com and woofmang.com Read, read and then read some more as the more you read and learn about why you smoked and about your addiction the easier your quit will be

Starting day 4 is great well done I am pleased you are finding it easier than you thought it would Like Cav I am wondering why you are using patches at night

Hi,

I had the 24 hour ones. Struggled as they messed with my sleep patterns so just took them off before bed. As an olympic morning smoker I expected to struggle, but as Cav says, you don't smoke in your sleep. You may just be struggling due to it being a link to a time you smoked. BB is the patch man though I believe. And the Wee man. Apparently.

BB is the patch man though I believe.

Correct, and full of good advice on the subject

And the Wee man. Apparently.

Just don't stand too close :p:rolleyes:
