Keep it up
Hello, my name is Doug and I am at 80 days today. I have been a smoker for about 33 years and it has dictated my life most of that entire time, everything I did revolved around whether I could smoke or not. I decided to do it cold turkey, I have seen too many people I know trade one addiction for another with the gum, patch, or vape!! The first 3 days were the absolute worst for me, after that was replacing idle time and routines with healthier alternatives. I have put on some weight, that's o.k. This is an individual program and find what works for you, I really don't have too many cravings anymore, I have however had the out of nowhere drop you to your knees cravings some mornings. These are what I'd like to warn people about, they don't last long if I find something else to focus my energy on. They really do come out of nowhere and can be startling!!! I intend to stay an ex-smoker!!! I'd also like to thank a lot of you, I have been reading stories before I actually joined. Some of you have helped me and don't even know it! As of June 21st 2018 I haven't had a single puff!!!
Could someone please help!! I’m 43 days after 35 years of smoking but my gums are so painful like ulcers but nothing there?? Can’t bight down to eat.. dentist was no help like I was an alien, please help 🙏
I haven't had any problems like that, it sounds like a gum infection. However, I am not a Dr. Maybe see another dentist, especially if it isn't going away!
I am nearly 5 months smoke free and did have lots of trouble with my gums.I was on Patches for a couple of months.I had heard gum trouble is a side affect.Best of luck on your journey.
