Hey Jan :)

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. :)

Hi Jan

Sorry you;re finding it a struglle right now after a week well done on the week but it#s very early days quit wise hun

You have to give it time OK

1 to rid yourself off addiction

2 for you body and mind to adjust

Nicotine is a bad addiction even worse than heroin but it does get easier the further you go promise

Can only echo the above really Jan!

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! :)

Hope you're having a better day today Jan.

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".

Stay strong :D
