This doesn't sound very good are you winding us up, not good for the new ones. What do you think Karri?

Never spoken to any body who still craves after a year!:eek:

Bet.

If it will put your newbe minds at rest I was definately not still craving after one year and I definately don't now. I still get times when I ask myself would I like a ciggy and then I think why would I want one. Is it just because I see others doing it and I miss something I had for 52 years? the answer stupidly is probably maybe. Then I think how stupid they look and how stupid they are to have this thing hanging out their mouth, suck in smoke and blew out again.

No I can assure you and I'm sure some others who have quit it is not normal to crave after one year. Someone asked me on a post to tell them when I stopped wanting a cigarette and unfortunately I can't find the thread to answer it. I believe it was after about 10 weeks or so I felt I didn't need them anymore. It was maybe about 4 months when I would go and lock the door at night and realise that's another day without thinking of smoking.

Remember we are all different and some are quicker than others.

Fully agree with Jack. I still think of them occasionally, but then ask myself the same question "why would I do that?"

After a time the craving does go..... but the thought that the occasional one wouldn't hurt can pop up from time to time - thing is to remember just how tough it was to quit in the first place- would you really want to put yourself through that again?

thats exactly wat keeps me going wen i have a tough time is know there is no way i can put myself through the early days of my quit ever again so not smoking again is the only option now
