Hello Folks ... Newbie Alert

Hi Folks, Im Gaz from sunny Bilston West mids, ive been visiting this forum now over the last couple of weeks since i had my last smoke on March 31st, i went to bed that night and decided when i woke up that i wasnt going to smoke no more, and no i havnt :)

Im now on day 16 and very proud of myself indeed,26 years i was smoking at least 40 a day on most days maybe even more on stressfull days.

So far my experiences/problems have been quite mild, the 1st couple of days were very dizzy shall we say, but since then nothing too stressfull.

Using only will power determination and a inhalator as back up all seems to be ok.

My biggest regret is not doing it years ago :mad:

Anyway hello everyone ;)

Hi Gaz :D

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

Well done you 16 days quit already that's great

Best Wishes

Thanks Sal/Lottie

I never set any dates, however it was on my mind to jack it in for a few weeks prior, some days more than others, then i thought its the 1st of April tomorrow and with that thought in my mind i woke up in the morning and even with my bacca packet on the side i just got up and ignored it.
