How are all the June quitters doing

hi last night i could not get on from 7 until... I had a little pantic attach and went to bed. It's so hard to smoke when you are asleep. Today is another tough day.. I do not have to work and i have so much free time on my hands. Well,I say I have free time, I could wash clothes, clean, organize closets, clean out my dirty car..

trying to quit smoking

Great!! You can quit forever! Make up you own mind and go one day at a time. Each day gets easier. mon [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/22/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 13 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 268 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $39 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 1 [B]Seconds:[/B] 51

I Always Use To Say . . .

Great way to look at your quit!! I have only quit once in my life for a week. I have never really wanted to (mentally) i guess?? Sushik one hour at a time, one day at a time.. It has worked for me. Be prepared for your triggers and stay true to yourself.. YOU CAN DO IT!!! I keep telling myself that a cig will not change the sistuation or make my life better.. Being a NON smoker will change my life in so many positive ways!!! lots of luck mon [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/22/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 13 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 268 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $39 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 4 [B]Seconds:[/B] 56

Irritated

breaking free You are not the only one. I just got off the phone w/ a friend repeating everything you just typed. I thought maybe a should go to AAA treatment facility and stay for a couple of months.. I have to get over this anger, bad attitude, wanting to cry or scream at my children.. I am taking naps I am drinking water I am chewing gum I am keeping myself buzy The normal side of me knows that I can breath now and I could not before i quit.. These feelings have to end.. so many people have quit and they look and act normal..???

Mama needs help now!!

mama hope your shower was refreshing!! Get comfy and watch re-runs of "law and order", one of my favorites! My first two weeks were hard and today has been a little tough, but i am trying to get off the nic gum so I can get this crap out of my system for good.. I feel like the nic.. is just like a ball and chain! My hat is off to you, that you have smokes in your house. I would have already fired one up.My husband smokes but i ask him to lock his in his car and not to smoke in front of me for a while. good luck!

I TRIED THE PATCH AND NOW I'M SCARED

Hi Rabbit Good luck!! I am also 45 with only 3 children and they are so very proud of me. I can not believe that you have not had any cravings to smoke. I am headed into my 3rd week and everyday is a different struggle. I have my own business and my husband travels 5 nights a week.. so my stress level is over the top. But i function better under stress. Just need to find another way to cope other than food. I may have put on 10lbs in the past few days, i refuse to weight in.. I need to stop smoking!! mon [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/22/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 16 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 338 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $48 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 46 [B]Seconds:[/B] 27
