Hello! Day 5 for me....

[nsd_user663_61164]

I have been smoking for about 13 years and never tried to give up before (although the thought has always been nagging me) but on Sunday something clicked and I felt that enough was enough. I bought an e-cigarette and haven't had a real one for nearly 5 days now. I am quite shocked! Emotions running a little high and it is constantly on my mind but it is my first attempt ever so I am trying not to put too much pressure on myself.

Anyway, I just wanted to introduce myself and get involved in the forum as think it will be really helpful talking to others in the same position. Most of my friends are non smoking or seem to find it really easy to quit!

Magwag - you have made an excellent start - well done.

Rock and Roll! Straight in at Day 5. Back of the net.

Thank you for the support - still quite shocked that I have gone this far! Someone said to me yesterday (a non smoker) that they didn't think 4 days was very long - I could have screamed at them! I think it is a very long time!

I feel a bit like I am cheating by using e-cigarettes - but then when I realise that I don't smell of smoke I feel good again and think that it doesn't matter how you give up as long as you give up. I can tackle the e-cigarette addiction at a later date!

Will take each day as it comes and fingers crossed I don't crack after a Friday night glass of wine!

What do they know, eh?
