6 days smoke free HELL. Any advice.

Hi, please please stick with it, you are doing amazing even though it may not feel like it, I was taking champix and for the first 19 days I thought I was going to collapse with exhaustion, the dr explained to me that it's not you that wants a ciggie, it's the receptors in your brain, the more you starve them of nicotine the less powerful they become until they become dormant, and you have won, your doing fabulous it will pass you will feel better in fact your gunna feel a quitter, x

Hi well done for taking that first huge step to being an X smoker, yea its hard but you have obviously been smoking s number of years so you knew it would be an over night quit, cold turkey is the best way to go, you quit once and that's it, no having to quit again when you decide to stop whatever crutch you chose to help you get off the very addictive nicotine, he's always difficult to part with, he was so good to you, he made you smell disgusting, he has put your lungs and heart at risk and he had made you so dependant on him he had become more nescassary to you than your family. Now you have ousted him from your life you will soon feel so much better, its like loving someone who you know is bad for you, leaving them is not easy and first of you need to go through the mourning process which is what you are describing, soon it will be over and you will know that this is your best choice.

Use the mantra NOPE not one Puff ever, because that one puff is all it takes to put Mr Nicodemon back into your life and you don't want that, do you??? If you do then there is absolutely nothing anyone can say to stop you smoking again, but I think if your here asking for support it means you truly want to quit so we are all here to back you up and tell u how great it is to be quit

Wow, I feel your pain. The good news is you havent smoked for 6 days, and keep on like this and your smoking days could be behind you forever. The first week is the worst, the next few weeks wont be easy, but I promise, get through this and you will be free. No money money down the drain, bad breath, smelly clothes etc. No more wondering where you can grab a sneaky fag, you wont be a slave to it. I admire the fact you went cold turkey. But before you reach for the fags, think about seeing your gp as there are things that they can offer to see you through this awful time. Use patches, e cigs, champix, etc. All of which help keep you off the weed itself. You are 80% of the way there. If you smoke again you put yourself back at square one.
