Just about to start day 2, feeling pretty tired didn't sleep to well last night, my mind trying to conjure up reasons why i should get up and have a smoke. Tried some deep breathing exercises which helped a little, but in the end had too tough it out. Will buy some Cammomile? tea today to help with sleep. If i'm honest with myself, I do feel ok, happy I've chosen to do this so thats a small pat o...

I started smoking when I was 13 years old. My family were all smokers, mostly truck drivers and I was surrounded by peers who smoked. I’m now 38 and a certified Chef. My idol(of course) is Chef Ramsay. I own all of his books and every one of them tells you that if you smoke, quit now because smoking dulls your palette.

1 day off the gasbers and I feel like death

My wife understood me ...

For instance, I have breakfast at 8am and take my first pill then. I have lunch at 1pm and then my dinner is at 5pm.... should I be taking the second pill after this meal? Please help. I'm worried because I'm only 5 days in, haven't even starte...

My hubby just told me he had a craving. Something that neither he nor I have had since our first few days of detoxing from nicotine. While someone just asked how long cravings last, I said forever because I know my Dad quit decades ago yet will still yet seldom have a thought of smoking. I have always referred to cravings as mere thoughts. Mere thoughts, as opposed to excruciating physical pain...
