Slip

Gave up for 2 days 22 days ago. I couldn't do it. Have started again today. I have to stay strong

JUST TAKE BIG DEEP BREATH one after one when urging arises..untill it passes off.. you will succeed.

Well I've made it through 1 day. Am OK by myself but went to work and I have No patience I feel aggressive and just looking for a fight. I'm very frustrated. This is day 1 . I feel out of control. Hope tomorrow is better

Hi. The hardest quit time is the first hour, then hours etc. somehow you get the strength and the determination to succeed. Hang in there here. Read some stories in the arChives if you are truly dinkum about quitting.

Hi Dullows,look the first 2 weeks is terrible....you feel cranky, irritable and not down to earth because your brain cannot get that kick to help with pleasure. But, be careful not worth losing your job which is bread and butter. You must try to remain calm and chew lollies or nrt lozenges in the early stages. Anger and frustration will only make you regress. I felt like you too in my early days....like i lost my best friend. Believe me if you stick it out you will be glad you lost that so called best friend. You will feel better and your pockets will be fuller. So, say to yourself "i must do this" if you are serious about quitting. As time goes by it will get easier...i promise you. All the best. Cheers.
