Into Day 2 now, and feeling, well, not too bad. Slept a bit better last night. I am going cold turkey with this - I want that drug out of my system as soon as possible. Am really looking forward to the 72 hour moment, when the nicoteine is all gone - but that's tomorrow and first I've got today to get through. And I will. I will not smoke today. This much I know. It is a joy to get through a whole day, from getting up to going to bed, without a single puff.
And a big plus -- my partner, who has never smoked and is so supportive in all the right ways bless 'er, has already said how it is so much nicer that I don't smell on my clothes, my hair, my breath.
Reckon kisses are better than patches.
All the best for everyone, and is especially my fellow Day 2ers.
Stay Strong.

Good going, yes it is very satisfying to get the nicotine out of your system, once and for all. Sounds like you are very motivated
Best wishes with it, understanding nicotine addiction is a great way of beating it. If you haven't already then browse through Whyquit.com and the tales at woofamng, links in my sig.
Thanks for the support and tips. Have checked out the sites and find it all really useful. Especially in those moments when I feel a bit less sure about my decision. It all helps to keep me on the right track.
Hi, well done you. I agree re CT, I think if I had found this site before I started patches I would definately have given CT a go. I got rid of them after three weeks. Though, it has worked for others on this forum.

Hiya Marg
I remember people saying the same round here. When anyone asks me at the centre how old I am I put 10 years on, then they all say, "Don't you do well, you look 10 years younger" Love. David xxx
