Hanging on

Keep going skinhound- keep fighting and thinking how gutted you will be if it beats you. It a demon in our heads and we are gonna kill it. Be strong and post on here-use self talk.

Cutting Back Before Quit Date

Hi Erika, I`m on zyban and I found that I brought my quit date forward as I prepared same as you have. The more into the course I went, the less smoking I wanted to do so I just stopped. I smoked a lot of cigs a day for 30 years-sometimes I have smoked 4 packs in one day- That is Disgusting-terrible. Gonna fight this demon to the death So Can You Tony [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 11/14/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 4 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 245 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �60 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 14 [B]Mins:[/B] 32 [B]Seconds:[/B] 22

DAY 5 Yesterday (Day 4) was so tough-there was so many times I nearly gave in. Times when I thought I had to have a cig or I would die. Amazing horrible feelings that no Zyban could stop. It was self talk that got me thro`-constantly saying "No, you dont need one-its the demon-lying to you-go away" and I did it. I`m so proud that I got thro` as I nearly did crack. I`m off to work now and I`ve took Nicodemons Lies with me which I found on here by Jacko who has lots of very interesting threads on here. Have a look for them. Day 5-wish me luck!!!

Facing the fear!!

Penguin I`m still in hell week and I`m crawling the walls same as yourself. Self talk got me thro` hell day yesterday and the demon is constantly there. Beware and fight. The add on TV in the UK is where the big Cig is behind you and the non smoker is doing Karate kicks beating up the big Cig-thats my head;constantly beating up the demon. Jan 1st is my 1st goal-that would do me for starters as then Xmas is gone and pressure is off(4 kids 1 grandkid) and then I can relax.

Today is day 4 for me and it is almost OVER.

Hi Jan Me too Jan-I`m now on Day 5 after 30 years of the demon- I`m finding it hard Jan but I gotta beat it. Not one drag of a cig or its over-I know-this is the 20th time I`ve quit in 10 years and 62 days is my max effort which is very poor; this time is different. Fight that demon Jan-use self talk-use the tools on the left here and we will go thro this journey together.

TONY HERE FROM WARRINGTON,UK

Thankyou to everyone for the Welcome. Yes I have to do it-for myself more than anyone really. Apart from the cash I will save, I have been to more funerals of young friends recently and I dont want the feinds that are left, to go to mine. I wanna be the last of us all. My friend Aiden, aged 37, died in his sleep on the 23rd of Oct.The funeral was Monday this week. It was so sad. My best school friend, Mark, died of cancer, although he never smoked a single cigarette in his life-age 41 and tommorow we lay him to rest. In between these two sad events, my mum was 60 and I became a Grandad. It`s amazing how this world works but it never stops spinning. The nearer I get to my quit date, the happier I seem to be. I hope tommorow stays dry for my friend and his family and I will be back on over the weekend. I mean, life can`t get any worse. Can it? Tony.
