Hi Ryan - Old Mr Nic lurks in the background and is always ready to pounce...You just let him know that you are in control and he is not getting you sucked in

You can so do this Ryan, you have come so very far in the past couple of weeks..Stay strong my friend

Hi Ryan , dont worry, cravings come and go when you dont expect them to. Like Glolin says stay strong you can do this.

You'll be craving for a long time yet. Use the nrt as prescribed whether ur craving or not and u will get thru it one day at a time one week, one month.

Ur doing really well and each craving u beat is a step closer 😀🚭

Ryan--it is crazy--there is a honeymoon period--where we have quit and kinda rest on out laurels and think--gee this isn't so bad--and then it comes back with a vengeance--Never underestimate the power of this addiction--I was thinking yesterday about how powerful it is--I believe I was hooked from the first drag at 14--Relax--go with the flow--but you are so vunerable right now so just kinda be on guard. Remember why you quit..and take it seriously.. We are battling one of the strongest drugs in the world--That is no lie--You conquer this and you can do anything--Put on you warrior gear and do battle and WIN!!--It will get easier--and you will honeymoon again--Remember these periods--because that is what your goal is --and no more surprise attacks.That day will come--its power will loosen over you.... Get mad-that's what I did--I thought no way is this crap going run my life anymore--Constantly takin my money,occupying my thoughts--takin my time--Its evil--I/We know it is hard--but hang on--and soon the blessings will come and they will stay for longer periods--and you will think--yeah--that's the ticket--and you will almost break your arm patting your own back--because it is a huge deal and a major accomplishment--Save your own life--please--you are so worth it...MmeT

Still ain't had a single puff I've been keeping myself really busy with my little brothers 21st and stuff 19 days today 😊🤔 I really can not believe it 😃 It's been rough and a couple of times I've nearly give in but after reading everyone else's posts I no what I'm going through is normal 🙄 I've never gone a full day without a cig so there's no going bk for me now. It's like a whole weight has been lifted off my shoulders I don't have to worry about saving for cigs I can just do my own thing with my son whenever I want to 😃🙏🏻 this site is a godsend and should be recommended on the nhs 💯 I don't think I would have lasted this long if it wasn't for the words of wisdom and help that I have received on here sorry for the long essay lol ain't been on for a few days GOOD LUCK TO YOU ALL 🍀👍🏻🍀👍🏻🍀 thanks again
