6th day

Going along well am quitting cold turkey, have yet to experience any really bad withdrawal symptoms, do have horrible cravings which seem to have reached a peak. Have developed a couple of mouth ulcers this morning not sure if that's part of quitting or not. Can't wait to hit the 3 mark. Any tips on what to do while drinking coffee?

Hi Rozla, My hardest times have been during the mornings when I am having my coffee. I used to drink 3 coffee's in the mornings and have cut back to 1/2 cup. Instead of having 3 sugar and 3 cream in it, I went to 0 sugar and 1 cream. This changed the association of coffee and cigarette. I now find it normal to have coffee with only 1 cream and 0 sugar. After 72 days I no longer associate coffee with cigarettes. Hang in there, it will hang in there, it will happen for you as well!
