On day 8 now and all I keep thinking about is smoking :(. I'm so irritable and snappy with friends, family, partner and colleagues that I keep thinking it best just to have a cigarette to calm me down. Its the last thing I want to do but also feel like I'm pushing everyone away.

Rather than think about what you have lost lala, think about what you have gained by not smoking. It's best to be positively positive and understand that a cancer stick will not help, in fact it will make things worse! :eek:Are you trying any NRT?

La La you do get like that I bought a rescue Remedy spray from Boots and it really helps me . Don't smoke it will pass x

Im good really freaking me out as I hardly think about smoking but I worked out the other day cause of caves I have only smoked 2 weeks in total over the last 7 months so maybe that is making it easier xxx

Excellent - I am in the same boat, probably smoked a month over the past year which is helping me on this last permanent run. x

I feel a lot better this afternoon. Was feeling very glum this morning and felt quite down and anxious. But feeling a lot better now. No not using any NRT. Done cold turkey all the way.

I'm focusing on how much I've saved, the fact that I can still smell my perfume that I applied 8 hours ago and the smell of others when they come back inside after a fag......that used to be me yuk!!!

Also my colleague has quit smoking, and I although I'm a couple of days further on in the struggle I won't be beaten and be the one to cave in!! A bit of healthy competition always helps

:). Thanks guys for your support. Xx

Good to read that post. That is a lot more positive. I also love that I can smell my shampoo all day long. Love it!
