Day 3

It's day 3. I'm not doing well. But have not broke and determined to keep going.
Well done!!
i am now on my 5th day and day 3 was the worst for me.. It was a living nightmare but i didnt cave and when i woke up the next morning i did feel much better..
How are you quitting??
Stay strong, you have done so well, keep up the good work!!

I am basically hiding out in bed, with my nicotine inhaler and Valium if I need it. I feel sick atm. Headaches and nausea. I hope ur right and things get better. Well done to u tho.

Hi Leelee sounds like u r doing it really tough at the moment i really feel for u.U said u r on the nicotine inhaler ! Have u tried the patches ? I found them to be very good and they certainly help with cravings,Its terrible to think u r hiding yourself in your bed.I found going for a walk,sweeping the floor,putting dishes away helped me with cravings as soon as your mind is doing something else the cravings go.The mind likes to play games.I am in my 7th week now its been tough but i feel so much better. The very best of luck to u we are all on here for the same reason TO QUIT.Keep us posted on how u r going
Hey Leeleej, like freedom said it sounds like you were really having a tough time.. I am hoping that today is a new day for you and you are finding it a little easier today..
I also find it much easier to cope when i keep myself busy.. I clean alot these days, go for a walk and more often than not end up on this site.. Lol.. I am also on the patches - they have been a god send for me! My last few attempts were cold turkey and i was an emotional wreck for about 2 weeks - crying one minute, screaming at someone the next.. Was no fun at all!
Stay strong and hang in, slowly i am finding each day a little easier than the last. Hang in there, you can do this!!
