Go to bed Evie. When you feel as bad as this its the best thing. Go to bed and put a close on the day. You WILL feel better in the morning. I'm sure of it. Remember Evie.....day 16 is wonderful but its still such early days. Better days are coming. I really hope you ride it out. You were so upset when your first quit failed. Stick at it girl. It isnt always going to feel like this. I promise.

Still here, thankyou Dippy for your reply - it's comforting to know that I'm not talking to myselfso thanks for listening to me.

You're right, I'm no use to anyone at the moment but I really have been doing so well.

At least I haven't smoked, that's the main thing I suppose and I really do think smoking is an awful habit. I just wish I didn't want to do it though.

Evie x

Hope you made it through to morning Evie....and look.....the sun is shining.
Don't know about you.....but the minute Tesco opens at 10 i'm swinging up on my bike and stuffing my panniers full of burgers, baps, sausage, salad, dips...etc etc etc. Barbeque here we come. Hooray.

Its awful in the early days feeling that you want to smoke Evie. But you know......the reason you are still winning this.....even if only just.......is because you actually feel that you DONT want to smoke, a little bit more than you feel that you do. My advise for what its worth is to accept that you feel like you want to smoke. Accept that that feeling isnt comfortable. Accept that and let it be. Dont fight it. It wont be long till the desire to NOT smoke gets much more of the upper hand. If this was easy us lot wouldnt be on here shouting from the rooftops everytime we reach another milestone.....and making sure we try to help people like you make it to your next one. Your next one, by the way, is TODAY. YOu made it, I hope, to today....and won over a horribly challenging day. Spark up the barbi and celebrate.

Default Panic Over

Sunday morning and I seem to have recovered from the nicotine nightmare I had last night, feeling much calmer this morning thank goodenss.

I didn't see that one coming at all but I think I've managed to survive without completely losing my sanity - that really was a close call and it was a good job there was nothing to smoke in the house.

You're right again Dippy, I will just have to take this one day at a time and accept that there are probably going to be a few more tricky moments ahead for me.

I was so worked up last night just because of a fancy for a smoke! Well, if I can get through that I think I should be able to get through anything else that this quit throws at me - I'm not giving in this time.

Evie x
