Poor you, it's awful when you feel like that

All I can say is that this WILL pass, honest. Do anything you can to take your mind off them. Keep as busy as you can. I used to read posts on here & visit whyquit.com. That always managed to get me through them & help harden my resolve.

How far quit are you? You Can do this, you really can.

Remeber, read, post, keep busy,busy busy & get through them the best you can

Hi there,

Please hang in there, you are doing so well, I know what u are saying about the craves, they sometimes seem to go on forever, I found that reading the posts and links along with deep breathing helped, not to mention the copious amounts of midget gems.

I can’t remember who posted this, but they said they had cut a straw in half and use that, as for my experience it helps me particularly in the morning, and then in the afternoon I take the capsule out. Hope the day gets easier for you.

Hi Lindy

Well done getting to day 13 is great but I'm so sorry you're fiding todaty tough to cope with

Keeping busy helps, also daft as it sounds drinking water gets rid of the craves

Just hang on and get through today in whatever way you con OK

Soon it will get easier Promise

Love and a Hug

Hiya Lin. You're doing great it's obvious that you really want this so you will get it. While you're on the patches, don't use more than two carts a day in your inhalator. David
