How serious should I be here?

Missy, completely normal. You will experience a number of feelings, emotions and triggers and you can expect them to hit you fairly frequently in the early days of your quit. There's no need to over analyse them. Just know at the moment you should try to tune into what your body is telling you need and that you have suppressed in the past with cigarettes. HALT is a common acronym. Hungry/thirsty - Start with cold water, fruit juice to keep blood sugar up or hard/boiled sweets. Have plenty of fruit on hand if you can. Angry - shout, scream, punch a pillow Lonely/bored - find a distraction, reading, posting and playing games here are good Tired - Get a nap if you can There are some good posts on the subject that I can't do justice to here, but hopefully you can follow this link Be really kind to yourself because what you are doing is awesome.

@Tammy you're quit is still very young and requires nurturing. Just know that you are doing a superb job and that as you beat the craves their power diminishes. You are winning every time you handle one.

Envelopes - they're tasty

Flex time although you do tend to end up working more hours it is so useful when you have something important that needs attention. Commute : drive to work or public transport?

Long overdue, but here we go. 1. I have just had two chicken curries for lunch 2. I have just had a lamb curry for lunch 3. I've just had poppadom with my lunch

7 months is hugely impressive and just to say smart move on using the gum rather than smoking again. That is the kind of quit that really should be celebrated and you should be feeling enormously proud in your achievement. You will get there with the gum as well, but you do need to approach it in a similar way. Decide when the time is right for you, then make sure you practise all the techniques that have got you here. You have quit smoking, the gum didn't do it for you.

It was a once, no wait twice, well ten times tops. It was there, all the cool kids were doing it, but I didn't ingest. Can you forgive me?
