Well yet again I dreamt again of smoking last night and when I woke up this morning it was constantly on my mind and I started to feel quite anxcious!!!!!!.....Then I realised that it is Friday(weekend) which means enjoying a bottle of vino or 2 which in line comes with the ciggies or well it used to, the way i'm feeling this morning I could quite easily buy some, but then I remember reading on people pages when they have the one and it's back to day 1 AGAIN and I'm not doing that when I'm on day 5 now. Has anyone else felt this early on wanting to go out and buy some????....
I just feel these horrible demons are playing tricks with my mind.....it really for me is hour by hour not day by day.
Hope everyone else is having a great day being smoke free.xx

Hey Sharon, whats happened, come on lets get that positive feeling again my mate... Yeah smoking dreams can seem so real, but dont be defeated cos they soon go...Stick with it mate, u will defro not regret it..... U are so much stronger then letting these horrible demons get u down.....
I have every faith in you. Stay strong and dont go back to DAY ONE, its not worth it... Kaz xx
I know the dreams haven't helped plus I didn't have a patch on for 12 hours so I'm sure the nicotine withdrawl will be stronger. I've got a patch on now and feeling better.
This weekend will be hard as you know me like my vino and socializing and the smoking has always come hand in hand with them, but I will not let you down mate I promise!!!!.
Positive thoughts coming back and I wont be defeated. Off to Library now with Em and for a brisk walk, still not took car out from the house since Monday!!!!!!....
After a phone call from Kaz before and receiving messages of support on this forum plus having my patch on now I'm back to my positive attitude of keeping going and I DON'T WANT A CIG:mad:
Sorry you are struggling a bit, you did the right thing posting about it. You will receive strength from others and be helping someone else at the same time. Perhaps you could read some of the literature on the websites, it's a good distraction and helps put things into perspective for you.
Your doing great day 5 well done mate. The first week can be a bit hard but your doing great and are over half way through. Take things hour by hour if need be it will start to get easyer soon honest.xxxxx
Thanks everyone you are all a real help and encouragement and have got me through today, smokefree!!!!!!.........
As of 4pm today I started on my day 6 so really pleased. Decided to stay in this evening so not to walk into any temptation at this early stage of a long, long road.
I'm at about the same point as you, I quit on Sunday 3rd and, like you, am finding it tough (I'd also like a glass or two of wine but don't trust myself!)
I had The Smoking Dream last night. It felt great until I woke up. Needless to say my inhalator has had such a chewing today.
I dreamt about smoking last night - though I was hiding when I did it!!!! Been thinking about ciggies all day since I got up but now going to go and find something else to do (fitness DVD) get some feel good messages going to my brain - sure that will keep me amused for an hour or so!!!
Keep up the good work.

Hi all,
Well yet again I dreamt again of smoking last night and when I woke up this morning it was constantly on my mind and I started to feel quite anxcious!!!!!!.....Then I realised that it is Friday(weekend) which means enjoying a bottle of vino or 2 which in line comes with the ciggies or well it used to, the way i'm feeling this morning I could quite easily buy some, but then I remember reading on people pages when they have the one and it's back to day 1 AGAIN and I'm not doing that when I'm on day 5 now.

Quitting smoking can be an hour by hour thing sometimes... these mind games you describe are very common, its what makes quitting such a challenge for many folk.
Just make sure you keep your desire to be quit from smoking higher than your desire to listen to the demon as he tries to romance you into having a smoke.
Remain strong, stubborn and determined. You can and will do this. Next time you get a craving? You look that demon right into his eyes and tell him a very firm NO!
