had a struggle at the start of the day and a struggle this evening, my goblin has convinced me to have a fag and also to carry on smoking for another year and by which time my house will hopefully be decorated and life will be easier !!! YEAH RIGHT

So here I am loaded with sweets and a large scotch and feeling a little lonely and sad-ish without being sad.

Maybe have an early night maybe best :D

Well done for getting through it Gerti :)

We've all had lousy days like that and Nic can be very persuasive :eek:

Good idea to be nice to yourself and curl up - i did it plenty!!

Well done Gerti! :)

Enjoy that early night. Sometimes it's just the thing we need to set ourselves back up for the fight! X

Number of times I've said "blow it" (or something a bit like like that ;) ) and gone to sleep, well it's a lot but it gets you through without smoking which is the main thing!!

Yup as everyone has mentioned sleep is our friend.

During the first few days at 22:00 onwards I'd be thinking ' go on have one it won't hurt', but thought grrrr no, ran upstairs and went to sleep.

Ya wake up and feel great!

I wish I could sleep forever, no cravings and im always a billionaire (dreams lol).

Thank god for this post!! lol its not until you read other peoples 'common just have one more fag' stories that you realise what is going on in your own head! :p well done on not caving in, at times it really does make perfect sense what the nico demon is saying.

my favourite is 'maybe im just a natural smoker...i do quite enjoy it' ha ha no one is a natural smoker and no one really enjoys it.

yay F*** you nico demon :D

Don't give up! I had so many fag thoughts today my brain nearly tempted me to buy them. It nearly had me, trying to tell me life is better with a cig, look at all these other people smoking your making yourself sad for no reason etc etc.

But I overcame these temptations by realizing that if I go back I will just be in the same old position, going round and round in circles. I just want to get past these first 3 months.

Buy loads of flavored chewing gum, that helps x
