Almost a week, Ace! Nice job! Keep reading to understand your craves and to stay motivated and positive! I 'read' myself through craves.... the next couple of weeks you're going to be tested again and again.... never doubt, push trough those craves, and it'll be smooth sailing soon.

Lee,

you've got to keep going, I'm having a very bad night tonight, am sure it's only cause today I was thinking about coming off the champix cause am fed up feeling sick all the time - and suddenly the cravings are unbelievable and won't go away, it's all in our minds, there's no one actually physically holding a fag to our mouth and saying you must smoke this so surely we can do it and anyway as G says you would then have to think of a name for June quitters and we don't want you to come out of our May Day Quitters.sooooo keep going xxx

There must be something in the air tonight as this has also been a bad one for me! But I am still here and I know tomorrow will be better. I do seem to have a bad day and then a good one so I am banking on that and looking forward to a chilled Saturday.

I do get the feeling sometimes that I am depriving myself of something pleasurable....but how can slowly killing myself and burning my hard earned cash be pleasurable??? I am an addict, it is that simple. I see no difference between alcohol addiction or any other addiction. My addiction to smoking was ruling my life and could potentially take my life. I owe it to my children and myself to break free from it. I lost my lovely dad to lung cancer 3 years ago and he was too young (63) and not ready to go. My dad lost his life because of his addiction to cigarettes. I miss him every day. I cannot put my children through the same thing. I tell myself each day that for today I will not smoke but I can tomorrow. I never want to tomorrow though so it seems to be working so far!

Apologies for the sermon but tonight has been tough! Keep at it everyone and Lee, you are doing great!

Hi Josephine, you will have a better day tomorrow as you say it seems to be a tough nite for some tonite, maybe it has something to do with the change in the weather, your post didnt sound like preaching, i too lost my dad to cancer just 2 years ago and promised him i would give up smoking, it took me almost two years to fullfill that promise and i too have good days and bad/hard days but the good are getting far more now than the bad, and i keep in my mind at the most difficult times, that i dont ever want to go back on my promise to my dad and hopefully my children wont have to see the same thing happen to me, it does get easier, so keep going and we can all do this together, x

Hi all, must be something in the air as I am having a harder time tonight than I have done also. I lose my dad just over 2 years ago also to smoking related disease. He tried & tried bless him but could not give up. He was just (a young) 70. Like you I do not want to put my children through the pain I went through. My chest was bad much earlier than dads (being only 48) so I don't think, if I carried on I would even make it to 70. Maybe, maybe not I am not playing that game thank you. Loves ya all, keep going, keep strong. Keep healthy. Love. G. xx
