Day 5

[nsd_user663_55136]

Hey, everyone I'm on day 5, the cravings are still there but its hard to explain I don't really want a fag and I have noticed how bad people smell who have been smoking, I guess it's breaking the routine of when I used to and have a smoke. Sorry if this don't make much sense:confused:

Hi Jemma

Makes perfect sense

Knowing that you really don't want to smoke won't stop the cravings overnight but it is a damn good sign that you are going in the right direction....and that's awesome

Well done, soon be in to week 2....before you know it you'll be months down the line, smiling like a Cheshire cat

Stay strong and keep going

Take care

Greg

I hear you Gemma. Between feelings of happiness from being free of the weed and feelings of elation for accomplishing something I never thought I'd ever be able to do, I also get these 'flat' feelings. I don't know if that is a term that could describe how you sometimes feel? I guess we spent so much time smoking and all of a sudden we have the other half of our life back that disappeared on fags and now that we have stopped, it's like, right...what to do now then?! Maybe I'm not explaining myself too well but I hope you kinda get what I'm trying to say. Good luck, together we can do this!!

Hi Jemma, sounds to me like you're doing fabulously. The cravings will get less and less pretty soon now, just get the first couple of weeks under your belt and keep reading / posting on here.

Keep if up love and stay strong

That makes perfect sense Jemma, I was exactly the same as you - still am sometimes!!

It's amazing how bad smokers smell isn't it? And to think we were like that and didn't think we smelled of smoke :eek:
