Day 4

Hey guys,

I have smoked for 17 years and had my last cigarette Sunday night. I am using 16 hour patches and nasal spray for those really bad cravings. Am finding the cravings really managable and am so proud of myself that I have gone this long. Had a bad dream last night that I smoked a whole packed of fags and was so upset this morning until I realised it was a dream. It's funny how the mind works. I'm just taking it one day at a time and am not even thinking about tomorrow. I just wanted to say thank you to sites like this which really helps you when ur feeling low.

Hi Nic, you've got the right idea, one day at a time, and those days soon mount up. The mind is a clever thing, but you seem very positive and up-beat, and if you can keep that motivation going you'll be fine. I can absolutely assure you that as the days/weeks clock by, it gets easier and easier.

Post if it gets tough, it really does help cos we're all going through the same thing, and it's good to know that you're not the only one on this planet going through the same emotions.

Keep smiling,

Lorraine :)

I'm on day four too!

I've had a few of those smoking dreams too and I'm so happy when I wake up and it was just that, a dream!

Stay strong and smoke free, I can't believe the change of attitude to smoking I've had already!
