2nd day newbie

[nsd_user663_4718]

Hi everyone :),

I just found this forum after doing a Google search and decided to join in the hope it will help me with not smoking.

My last cigarette was yesterday after lunch and to be honest I'm amazed that here I am 1 day, 6 hours and about 20 minutes later and I haven't rushed out to buy more tobacco (I've rolled my own for about 5 years).

I've felt very tired today. Not sure if it's connected, maybe I'm using all my energy on willpower :D. And I've had a couple of irritable moments but nothing too bad so far.

I'm taking it 1 minute at a time and even though my thoughts seem to be solely of smoking I'm trying to turn it around by making them positive non smoking thoughts.

Thanks for reading and hopefully I will be back tomorrow to add to the 3rd day topic.

Keep up the good work everyone.

Hi Erasurist

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 on your 2nd day Just hang in there

The tiredness and being irritable are both normal for us quitters but doesn't last long

Best Wishes

Thanks Marg and Billy,

Day 3 dawns. I seem to be finding it easier at home than at work so hopefully the weekend will be uneventful. Fingers crossed.
