day one quit!
This has been my first day off quiting ciggies!! COLD TURKEY! I finished my last cigarettes last night, woke up this morning really craving a cig but i decided today was gonna be the day. Suprisingly it wasnt all that bad. Maybe tomorrow would be worse. Today I seem to not have had an as bad experiences that I had before. I thought I would be crying in the corning by the end of today and have to lock myself in a dark room to keep from hurting anyone. But I was quite in control today. I felt a little on edge an at times I did get cravings but they subsided sure enough. I felt a bit sleepy most of the day. Im worried that tomorrow is going to be hell. why wasnt today as bad as I thought! WEIRDE! Maybe I can actually do this!! :)
Of course you can do it! Keep up the positive thinking because being scared of cravings and worried about a bad experience will only hinder your attempt. And actually, don't think of it as a quit attempt - you're already a non-smoker! Good stuff :)
Dean,
the first step is actually the hardest I reckon, it does get easier mate. I got a bit cranky apparently, so my wife and kids said, lol. are you still not smoking??
