August 31, 20188 yr It's going okay....no it's not....I can do this....no I can't.....it'll get better....probably not One more hour...no way.....food tastes better.....don't know......no appetite I am so drained from this...don't care....yes I do....
August 31, 20188 yr Yes you do care parsley, that's why you're posting I used my air cigarette when bad craves hit. I just pretended I was holding a real cigarette in my fingers and then went through the motions of "smoking" it. It worked great at tricking my brain into thinking it was getting the real thing. Some people use cut straws or pens etc. Each day you succeed is one more day you never have to go through again. You're doing awesome Edited August 31, 20188 yr by jillar
August 31, 20188 yr Here is some of our anecdotal evidence of quitting, Your First Days Nicotine Free I went on to primal screaming showers, walks, dance, I sucked on a stick of cinnamon like Jillar's Air Cigarette and studied until my eyes bled about addiction, watched all of the scary tobacco related movies. It can be exhausting. Sleep. Reward yourself on your first days of Freedom. You are inspiring. S Edited August 31, 20188 yr by Sazerac
August 31, 20188 yr Author Thanks for the replies....Day 5 completed at noon...it is a very tiny bit better...tiny tiny I made a ticker and like what I see ( can't get it on my posts yet though) Making a list of good things right now....quite a few when I wrote them down. Using air cig ..straw style, candy stick style and just nothing style Always busy but even busier now, tired but keep going so no time to get stupid and buy cigs, I hardly allow myself time to get to work, no time to go to station to buy a pack and have that just one I am trying...I want this....on to day 6 soon.....
August 31, 20188 yr The first few weeks are kind of like having a contrary 2 year old take up residence in ya head. I want that toy but as soon as you get it nope, I want that other thing.... there is no rationalising with it you just have to ride it out. But you only have to focus on one day at a time... that's it, just one little day. no more, no less... you can do this. You did it yesterday. You did it the day before so you know you can. Now you just need to do it for today, just one little day. Jillar is right, despite what that little junky voice in your head says, you do care... so post all the random crazy thoughts... even the completely insane ones... the first 3 months of my quit I was obsessed with ways that Australia could take over the world... I even formulated a whole plan and program for this to happen... no that is crazy! But my crazy plans for world domination saw me through some tight spots. We all find something that works for us... when you do run with it, it doesn't matter how odd or crazy it is as long as it isn't hurting you or anyone else then just go with it sweety because it will help and it will work.
