Help please
Hello my names Gina I’m new to this so bare with me please, I’m day 2 into cutting down to 1 smoke. I used to do about 25-30 a day easily. But I’ve come to realisation that going to hospital on Monday has told me I need to snap out of it and stay committed or I won’t be able to breathe for much longer.
Now I have never quit before and I’m suffering some crazy voices in my head telling me to keep having another one, I’ve been told there junkie smoke redrawals? When do they go away I’m so scared that there going to stay there forever.
Also I have lost my appetite n energy I keep falling asleep and I’m scared to socialise as my whole family smoke so I have locked myself in my room until craving go away :( I need help
stop keeping nicotine fed, in 72 hours with no nicotine you regain control. until then he will beg relentlessly. after that he is too weak to bother yoy much and you will feel empowered, you can do it, reading the book will help, make it much easier on yourseelf. the right mindset changes everything to your favour
As long as you keep having the one a day, the nicotine withdrawal will not only continue but actually be worse as you make that one cigarette more important in your mind. (Straight from Allan Carr Book). It is junkie thinking and to stop it is to quit all nicotine. Like Happiness said, in 3-4 days, you will be thru the physical withdrawal. But you do want to work on a positive attitude and regain your power. You can be successful- you just have to want it. Once you make the decision not to smoke, it gets easier.
You are dealing with it already, so this will ease up when you also realize that the "Junkie" thinking or whatever you like to call it, will grow weaker every day. Practice deep breathing regularily, this will help you relax without retreating to your bedroom all of the time.
Start reading up on the Nicotine drug which is causing you this problem. Create a mindset within yourself that no matter what; you will continue to stop smoking (N.O.P.E) Not one puff Ever. and I mean forever, or you will go backwards in your resolve and become dependant on Nicotine once again. Good luck
thankyou so much for all the positive words I’m keeping strong 💪 I GOT THIS !!!
