Remember this is a drug addiction you are giving up. Nicotine is so evil,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, :mad:
You have to keep a positive mind and everytime it enters your thoughts change your thoughts into positive ones. It takes time for the nasty drug to leave. Be proud and keeep going. You owe it to yourself.
It will get better. There are so many of us sitting here up in the penthouse who know exactly what you are going through, but can vouch that each time you beat the craves it gets a little easier. Pat yourself on the back for completing a week. Thats a terrific achievement.
I know it feels like every day is a struggle at the moment, but it does get better and better. You've got all sorts of good stuff to come, so try and look forward to that when things are tough.
Before too long, you'll get through whole days without thinking about a cig - honestly, you will. In the meantime, try and be nice to yourself, give yourself little treats and keep telling yourself how well you are doing.
Failing that, come on here, and we'll tell you how well you're doing!
When I am having as yo-yo day, "I want one, I don't want one" etc.
I try and actually go through the smoking ritual in my head, rolling, sparking, puffing....I get to second puff (in my head) and imagine looking down at the fag and feel guit and repulsion wash over me and think..."that mentally wan't worth it, so having a physical cigarette ain't worth it either".
Thankyou im so glad i found this forum . It bring tears to my eyes .So many of you have helped me and also reading your posts through this last week has been my brick .I feel all iv done is moan lol ,but it does help putting it on hear . Anyway what is this penthouse ????I really want to make it to there lol
Hope you are all good and strong as you can be . Have a good evening
