That's how I feel today.. :(. I seem to have a good day bad day.... Grrrrr why the hell does my body feel like its screaming out and having a tantrum for a nasty ciggy..... :(

It ain't having one... Can't unless I let it and I will not allow that... I just can't believe how weak I must be to still after a month have major cravings.... grrrrr

I have been sipping water through a straw as suggested, I have no post it's but thought ah!!! The straw can be a substitute.. These things have helped.. But so so wish the cravings would leave me alone and go away... For good !!

Wondering how many more days.. Weeks... Months ;-0. I have to go with nasty cravings keeping on at me.... Would be ok if I could just hide from them under the duvet till they go but life goes on and like everyone else I have things I have to do...

Grrrr

Haven't caved in... So I'm still winning :) hope everyone's good and having a crave free relaxing day ;)

Xx

Lelley have you tried reading A Carr's book? I find there are sections within it which always help. :)

Ok thank you... I will do whatever it takes to help me succeed... I have judt bought the book (kindle) I thought you had to start reading the book whilst still a smoker though?? Damn!! Does that mean ill have to have a few ciggys !!! Lol.

Agree with Dicko.

You really need to win a huge psychological battle to defeat smoking.We are addicts; so we have an addict mentality.That means we still want what we give up,want it really badly,and are ridiculously over sentimental about the lost benefits of smoking..what Carr does is to rewire that addict mentality and help turn it in on itself so that we begin to celebrate escaping the curse of smoking not resent it.You can see that interpreted in different ways,Willpower he just grins his way through his quit,Kat73 she has turned smoking into a vicious and pernicious enemy that must be attacked relentlessly,I regard nicotine as a deeply clever versatile and cunning enemy,and so on we all have different ways of seeing the enemy but make NO mistake it is an enemy:cool:

Haven't read Alan Carr but to me it's a ball and chain. I was tethered to cigarettes, sort of a tag that I had to check in with every hour or I became a grumpy angry nasty b*tch.

Who the heck would want to go back to that?

Ooh and just random thought that surfaced :eek: when you had a ciggie and you "needed" it, it didn't feel good 'cos the ciggie felt nice - it was because the monster in your head got what it wanted for an hour.

Sorry you're having a bad day. This is the third post today I've mentioned the emotional roller coaster journey we're all on. There are sometimes not two days the same and it can leave us feeling all over the place.

Hopefully this feeling will pass and tomorrow you'll be flying high:)
