Woke up early, feeling good. Put patch on, set up my inhaler, so here I go.

Thank you everyone for your support, encouragement and advise yesterday, it will defiantly help me get through this quit.

10 hours gone since my final ciggy, feeling good.

Hi Deb9795, a huge, huge welcome to Quit Support

You've made a crackin' decision for the benefit of your health and we'll march with you all the way through your journey

You sound as if you have armed yourself really well and have already been given some great advice already from our lovely members

Whilst finding yourself in a great frame of mind, it is worth planning what you will do when surrounded by smokers - putting a firm plan in place now will stop you from succumbing to temptation later

The patch will be helping you now, see how you go and either use the inhalator as and when you feel a slight temptation.

If you find that you are feeling tempted a bit too often, then use the inhalator on the hour every hour initially. This will help maintain blood-nicotine levels.

The inhalator does not deliver nicotine into the lungs; Nicotine is absorbed in the mouth and throat.

Pete has advised on the best way to use it, many folks think that you puff on it as you would a cigarette and then find that it doesn't agree with them or gives them a touch of heartburn

Keep us posted on how it's going and remember to stay positive

Thanks for the welcome, so far so good although I had a dentist appointment for a check up and I needed some treatment. So now I have a numb mouth and lip so even if I wanted to smoke I couldn't haha. Staying strong will get through this day and the others to follow x

Ok the numbness in my mouth has gone, but the tooth I had the work on is terrible😦 I know they said it could hurt a bit for a few days but I didn't have any pain when I went for my check up. On the good side it's one of my front lower teeth so even if I wanted to smoke I couldn't 😆. Feel good otherwise hope everyone else is having a good day ☺
