Hey desperate1, might I suggest a ticker for your signature? It's super encouraging watching all the time, money and cigarettes not smoked add up plus shows you what you have to lose should you cave to a crave. I loved watching mine that first year

When I became I homeowner I quit smoking in my house but in the rental houses before that I used TSP to scrub the walls. It's a powder that you mix with water and it did a good job at getting rid of the nicotine. You could probably even use Simple Green mixed with water and it's got a nice smell too The antsy feeling is totally normal. I wish I had of got that instead of the tired feeling. I was too exhausted to even think about doing anything. So when you're done doing your stuff and are feeling antsy still, come on over and clean my house 😜

So sad to read this. Is no place safe anymore?!.....Red neck gogglesGlad to have you back desperate1, we have tons of successful quitters who were long term smokers. I smoked for 35 years! My advice would be to stick close to the board, especially that first month. I stayed glued to the board my first year and am convinced I wouldn't have been successful otherwise. Plus I met some great people from all over the world There is a wealth of information between all of us and we will support you however much you need or want. After all no one knows better what we go through when quitting than usAnd again in honor of @reciprocity And one more for @reciprocity^^THIS^^ And thank you to all who make this place what it isLilly, like the others said, who cares what that guy says! You are smoking, that's HUGE! Keep using your patch, it's working! And don't let anyone tell you differently!!!If I had a nickel for every time I heard that...…….Thanks for the update igotthis, the thoughts will get fewer and farther between soon enoughCongratulations on five months quit igotthis, you're doing great!Welcome aboard kallison, I'd be happy to set you a deadline. I pick March 18, 2019. I pick that day so you can start preparing. You see when I decided to quit I didn't set a deadline but I did start preparing by not smoking in places I normally smoked. That made it so much easier when I did quit because I didn't associate smoking with those areas anymore. Another thing I used after I quit was my air cigarette. Whenever a bad crave hit I just pretended I was holding an actual cigarette in my fingers and then went through the motions of "smoking" it. It did great at tricking my mind into thinking I was getting the real thing. Lastly I stayed glued to my forum everyday, all day. I really found that reading, supporting others, celebrating milestones and socializing kept my mind off my misery. You can do it and we'll help as much as we canWelocme @Jeana919, congratulations on taking back your life! You'll find great support here so stick close and we'll help you past the tough spotsHere's my 15,264!I'm really happy to hear that you're making plans to quit again @hangoversquare. How about shooting for this week?
