Trying To Give Up Smoking
119 Answers
Is there a group on here at all? I did search, but cannot find one.
It's day 15 for me, and I've come very close to breaking down and lighting up, but just typing this has helped me to see the folly of my ways!
I'm not throwing 15 days away for a fag!
Would be great if there was a cheer squad/support group here, so please point me in the right direction if I've missed it.
Meanwhile, 20 a day at almost 8 quid a pack has saved me £120 already. Unimportant, however when the craving really hits!

well done you, voulez-vous.......just done my annual booze dry-out and carrying on with cutting the drink out when at home, as tonight. Keep on pushing through on those withdrawal symptoms, you even get them on the booze drive too, some morning mild-migraine like headaches as, I guess, the aldehydes pop out of the liver.
Have you given yourself any little reward yet, like a nice bottle of wine? I have never really smoked, the occasional cigar from a Cuban virgin, but they say the sense of taste really ups itself when you cease smoking - and then you become a firm anti-smoker over the dining table leading to no more inter-course cigarettes....

Well done, keep it up! I'll tell you this When I gave up smoking (Over 25 years ago now) I had gone 9 days without a ciggie. Then on the tenth day I was woken at an ungodly hour with very bad news (death in the famiy) and my immediate rection was to reach for a cigarette. I lit up and inhaled - OMG I suddenly went light headed, my mouth salivered up and I felt so sick, and I started to shake and felt dizzy. I was heaving and wretching and had to stand by an open window for fresh air. I stubbed it out and that was my last cigarette. I put the feeling akin to being on the big wheel and waltzers combined after eating a big greasy fry-up with a bad hangover. So if the craving gets bad, think of that!!
