Welcome Tiayana and well done for getting half way through your first day

The first three days are the worst and you have made a darned good start, keep it up.

Many of us, myslef included have tried a few times so no worries about that. I am 42 days into this quit which is the longest I have managed for a long while and determined that this is the last one.

Post lots, read lots. There are many people here to help and support you

Cheers neverstoptrying yea I am having some serious ups and downs, 1 minute im delighted 4 myself 4 getting started again, the next I feel like crying as I'll not be getting a smoke again:confused:, dose this get easier.. I am delighted 4 u that u have made it to day 42 keep it up, I went of them last time with a friend who has stayed off them which makes her off them over a year now.

Hi,

You are going through the worst part at the moment as the nicotine is leaving your body. This is the physical withdrawal which usually lasts just 3 days. You're a third of the way there already!

Don't feel sad about never smoking again. It is doing NOTHING for you and most importantly for your health. You managed to live perfectly well without it before you started, you have to learn to do it again. You are not giving anything up. You are taking back your life. Take each day one at a time.

I have certainly been where you are now. The if I had stayed on this and that quit I would be xxxxx years quit. That time has gone. Learn from your past mistakes and put that knowledge into use now.

If it takes a bag of minstrels go for it. Your weight will sort itself out as and when. Better a bit of extra weight than to carry on poisoning yourself.

My weight is not too bad but I am using lozenges so that has helped a lot.

Day 2 for you tomorrow so just stay strong. You CAN do this.
