Take a deep breath and read the form and some of the links here. Go to utube and surf some of the quitting smoking vids. I found reading some of the web pages on info about smoking helped a lot. Understanding that your a junkie looking for a fix. Take a moment to think about the reasons you quit in the first place. Stay on the quit , you can do it.

hang on in there

Hi Sparko

Im on about day 13 and i have just had a bad few days like youre having today and I know its sheer hell!!!!!!!!!! I have spent my last few days trying to decide if i can or want to do this? I am happy to say i am and will do this, but there are going to be bits that are tough and will just have to grin and bear them but in the end we will be stronger for them. Surely knowing how hard it has been and still is, we must never put ourselves in a position where we have to go through it again. I know if i have just one cig i will be smoking again and then soon i will have to face upto stopping again and putting myself through all this again and i cant do it.

Hang on in there, if i can, so can you.

Well done for this far and looking forward to talking to further down the line.

Take care

Jane

Jane and Sparko,

you guys are doing really well.... please hang in there and continue to stick with your quit..... it will get easier soon. I caved on my day 12 but resumed my quit and I know it was tougher for me because of it. Keep pushing through those hard times, you won't regret it, promise! Post if you need support, and read like Twiste suggested so you can better understand what you are going through and know there is light at the end of the tunnel xx

I know how tough this may seem for you's right now, the feeling of self doubt is made strong and all i can tell ye is that this is a test, you are having your determination tested, but you really do have to grit your teeth and not give in. This was never going to be an easy ride.. but this rough patch of the quit you are going through right now i promise is not forever, it just seems to be dragging its heels timewise, a bit like your are caught in a timewarp.

Do you very very best to get through each and every day, and do more reading when you are your least vulnerable moments to help you when a craving strikes. I know i keep writing this, but check out the links in my signature as a starter, and if you look on many of the folks signatures on here, you'll probably notice even more useful links to good reading material.

By strengthening your mind and building up your resolve/determination, you will be making the foundation of your quit much more solid, and this will definitely help on the more awkward days.

Things WILL get better, you just have to believe those good days are coming and get through the days where you are now on the road to the good ones.
