Day One...

Got up this morning determined not to buy any cigarettes. I don’t think Chris will be too impressed when he finds out I have raided his stash of Chupa Chups Lollypops!! Maybe I should have planned ahead a bit better and bought my own, but now I have no cigarettes left I dare not go into a shop. Not yet anyway.

I am quite proud of myself actually. Normally I would fold and stop of at the nearest garage on the way to work, but I managed to make it all the way to Coventry and into the building without caving in. :)

All I can think about now though is standing outside having a cigarette. I am struggling today, I am finding it very hard to concentrate on my work and I am so restless.

Just want to go home actually, I only have 2 hours 20 min but I think I will go insane.

Please tell me all this is normal!!

I would say that was pretty normal for the first day. It consumes your thoughts at first. Well done for not stopping at the garage and buying any. It does get better the longer you go on the less you think about it and the restlessness ceases too. Keep it up! You are right to be proud of yourself.
