So day 8. Still cold turkey. It seems to be better for me than patches. I was worrying about too much with patches. Like remembering to put them on, having to buy them and the cost, the red marks left and who will spot them. Hiding the patches was nearly as bad as hiding smoking.
I am proud to be here without any NRT and feel like I have achieved more CT.
My sleeping has got alot better too so maybe it was the patches that was affecting that too.
My end of the week treat is going to be something nice from the Zoo tomorrow. I believe in praise and treats

Wow, well done Bunny!
Cold turkey is always the best way and, like you said, there are quite a few side effects from using NRT. Sometimes it can make life a lot harder to wear patches etc.
I too believe in rewards, so definately treat yourself this weekend!

Well done Magcibunny!!
Am really glad cold turkey is working for you - it definitely makes quitting quicker than NRT, and you are doing so well!!
Enjoy your day out and your treat, you definitely deserve it :cool: x
You did it, you did it, oh yeah, yeah, yeah, no smoking here tonight, no, no smoking here tonight you're on a........... (well, I paraphrased most of it!):o
