Thankyou guys for your help, it's much appreciated! I'm not sure if this is the way to reply to your comments lol. Day 2 is a bit of a struggle today, stressing quite a lot but I'm doing things to keep me busy in answer to one of your questions, I've actually got a patch on, I don't think I could do cold turkey, as I need that little bit of help! I'm sure I will get there x

Thanks
Try and stay strong Crazyhou, It will get easier :). Remember the mind is a powerful tool. use it to remind you how you are now a non smoker and when ever you get those pesty cravings you can just shrug it off with attitude that you wont be sucked in by mister nic.
You are doing brilliantly and use this site to help you. Arm your self with Knowledge and come on and yell for help should you need it.
Hiya, yep Glolin is right it will get easier but at the moment it doesn't seem that way
In the beginning all we seem to think about is what we can't have
Distract yourself anyway you can and each day you will get stronger
Be very proud of yourself for doing this and hang on in there, one day at a time x
So Crazyhou, your using the patches to help you and very good they are too These might make you a bit ermmmmm, windy well they did me, untill my body got used to them plus, they will probably leave a red mark and will itch but again, this will go as your body gets used to them
Remember to stick them in a different place each day
I used the 24 hour patches to start with, but found I couldnt sleep, soooo, I went onto the 16 hour patches which you take off when you go to bed, job sorted
Good luck Crazy, you stick at it
Stay with it Crazyhou, 5 days and you get a badge. You can do it.
Remember our motto NOPE!
Not
One
Puff
Ever.
I will defo keep that in mind you guys are really helpful already thanks so much!
Welcome to the group Crazyhou
Hey Crazyhou, welcome aboard to Quit Support - our happy place
The 24 hour patch is also licensed as a 16 hour one so if you find that it is working well for you, stick with it and just remove it as you go to bed. You can also leave a fresh one under your pillow, still in it's little packet (Pete recommends this) and when you wake up in the morning, it will have reached your body temperature and will stick on nicely for you
As everyone says, if you do feel like you're struggling - bob on here and let us know, usually somebody will have a handy hint or tip to get you through your moment
Stay strong, you can do this
