Sorry to be late to the celebration (on a work trip), but I couldn’t miss the belated chance to send love and gratitude your way! Congratulations on 8 years, and thanks so much for the support you offer to the rest of us.

Glad to gave you on the Quit Train @StellaBlue. “Firsts” are always hard… first vacation after quitting, first argument, first funeral, etc. I used patches when I quit and they definitely took the edge off. But I still got huge cravings (because I was a heavy smoker and because skin delivery is less potent). Ice cold drinks and the occasional nicotine lozenge when I was at the end of my rope got me through. You can get through, too. Until then, remember that your cravings are just your addiction throwing tantrums. You wouldn’t give a 3 year old a sharp knife - or a cigarette - just because she had a tantrum, would you? Of course not. Hang in there and post often!

Welcome aboard @StruggleDaily! Glad to have you join the Quit Train community. You’ve made it through Hell Week already! That’s no small feat. Keep at it and you never will need to go through the withdrawal misery again. I smoked for 40+ years and it was really hard at first. But it DOES get better. Stay strong, and give your body and mind time to adjust. You won’t regret it. You can do this!

Yeah, sometimes the old siren song rises up. NOPE, indeed. You know how to swat that junk away… you know it’s a false narrative. Take tender care of yourself.

NOPE
