Hi all

After about 6 quit attempts in the last month, I'm now back on day 1. Going cold turkey and boy can I feel it! :rolleyes:

Managed to do the Sainasburies shop without going to the fag counter though!

hey doglover,

well done. stay persistent and hang in there! You might want to remove all the things around you that will make you want to smoke, ash trays lighters etc.

Also keep yourself busy, watching a clock tick makes everything so much worse! Remember to drink plenty of water and it helps doing light exercise (ie walking)

Good luck!!

Don't Give Up

Doglover:

Well, I'm here at my computer petting my corgi and mutt/Jack Russell and it has been two years since I quit smoking, plus a few weeks.

Just remember that it gets easier every single day. Just a little bit easier every day. Some days that "little bit" may seem as far away as Mars, but it is like how the day shortens or lengthens by the season. The length of daylight in a day changes only a minute or so, but when you count up the minutes over a month and the months pile up, soon it's high summer and daytime never seems to end.

Before you know it, you will be on top of the world and a non-smoker. Just keep it up.

Your dogs will thank you. For that matter, you will thank you.

Well done doglover on your day 1...just take it hour by hour today. I found just sitting tight at my computer and reading, reading and reading some more really helped. Not just smoking related things either...anything to take your mind of the week.

Good luck for today
