Ok so last night was weird..... This cold turkey is hardcore and to anyone that's done it good on you, I am persevering,last night I had very little sleep it felt like I was l looking at the clock all night, I'm sure it was my body crying out for nicotine!

Feel very tired this morning so had a bacon roll and off for a nap now, luckily no work today!

Onwards and upwards though heading towards that first week :) xxx

Well done Donna, last time I went cold turkey as well and it is harder for the first days no doubt but you will find it easier afterwords. One thing I had to do was stop drinking coffee all together, I have 7 or 8 expressos any given day, once I stopped, I managed to get some sleep....good luck for today and stay strong, I don't know abt you, but I do not want to do this again, I am feed up with it, let's make it our last one!

You're doing well Donna, keep it up. I've always gone down the Champix route myself, so haven't experienced CT as such.

Graham how long did you stay on the champix for? I don't like to take but I'm willing to take as long as necessary to kick the niko away for good. My Gp was saying maybe 6 months on 1 mg instead of 3 months on 2 mg. How long did you stay on the medication for?

Hanging in there although very stressed today and craving badlay, especially this evening.....also I have been sweating loads, mainly my face? Early night for me tonight, expecting day three to be utter plop and then I'm hoping things will pick up slightly xx

Owww!! Don't give up, remember how frustrating it is to keep going back to the beginning and keep it up! I'm right here if you need a rant!
