Yesterday was hard and the first time buying a packet has crossed my mind. pissed off just now as well. I don't how im managing to quit so easily. I even go out and stand for a chat with people while they smoke. Where as a week ago i couldn't even go half an hour without one.

Hiya Euan, you've done very well to get to 8 days and it's quite normal to think of buying a pack but you didn't give in to it. You stayed determined and it passed, so that's a great achievement. I think we're tempted on many occasions to give in or give up but you gave it your all instead, so be proud of yourself. Quitting isn't very often a smooth journey but we have to dig deep and keep going. You've come along way in a week as a non smoker, well done and keep up the good work😊x

Thanks for checking in, Euan -- you'rte doing fantastically well this early in your quit.

Not every day will be easy but sounds like you're off to a terrific start.

That's great! Pizza tastes so much better than cigs! Lol

Hello. Euan93

Don't feel guilty about craving a cigarette. I think we all go through cravings no matter how long we've been off cigarettes

You're doing great🎉👏
