Hi Charlie, well done for getting to day 3 and welcome :)

That is totally normal, you get rid of most of the nicotine if you don't use NRT in 3 days so right now is when you're feeling it most - stick with it and soon you'll feel heaps better :)

In the meantime, post on here to rant or vent or anything!!

Thanks Gemma

Yeah i was getting cravings yesterday but the ones this morning were massive,just had a quick shower to take my mind off it so hopefully that helps for a while(theres only so many showers you can take in a day),but just looking at my 4 year old daughter really hits it home why im doing this

Does day 4 get easier? lol

It will get loads better, but it depends on lots of things how quick it is!!

Anything you can do to distract yoursellf is good 'cos most craves pass fairly fast :)

It's fab that you're stopping for your daughter, well done :D

Not what you're looking for?
