Good for you, Sam!! Sam, you've got a good approach to your quit. Keep doing what you're doing and I think you're going to be just fine. Just take it slow. I know I've already emphasised that, but it's worth repeating. Just put one foot in front of the other for a while and focus on what's in front of you. You're doing wonderfully!!

[b]I wrote this on another thread and copied and pasted it here....[/b] I woke up this morning (with patch on from yesterday morning) with an incredible craving Patch had passed it's 24 hr mark and OMG what a rotten feeling ! Thank goodness I discarded ALL cig's, or else I would have lit up for sure. I immediately put on a fresh patch, ate my breakfast and did some deep breathing exercises. AND I let out some A A A A A's ! Making these primal sounds really helps me out a lot... Am very sure that my neighbours can hear me .. LOL ! Cravings have calmed down a lot and now going to get some light chores done. It isn't a good day for a walk - so hot and humid :( [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]6/23/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 3 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 60 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $21.75 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 47 [B]Seconds:[/B] 46

I didn't quit on the patch this time.....but I have used the patch before. I found the dreams FUN!! I say...quiting is hard....so grab what ever fun you can. Even if it is vivid dreams. Dreaming of "whatever" is better than thinking about smoking. It's actually a welcomed relief..isn't it? Mercy:) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 155 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,100 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $692.85 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 20 [B]Hrs:[/B] 10 [B]Mins:[/B] 51 [B]Seconds:[/B] 52

Good Monday morning Ex :) Well hon all went well last night ! WOO HOO ! No dreams, no sleep disturbances .. just a good sound, deep sleep ;) Even though I wore the patch to bed I did wake up 'thinking' about a cig, but I know that's perfectly normal. In time there will be a NEW 'normal' and I just have to wait for that time and be patient. Take it all one day at a time. How are you doing today Ex ? Hey Phil.. your avatar is very graphic ! Sends a clear message ! So you had bad nightmare's with the patch huh ? That is what I had feared, but I don't want to go through what I did yesterday morning in the wee hours - up at 2 a.m. climbing the walls with a horrible craving :( Btw, what the heck is a 'nozzly thing'? LOL! Into day 3 :p and time to slap on a new patch :) Have a super non smoking Monday !

When I saw Mister Ed's wonderful list of quitter's I had asked to be added to the list and apparently in the database there was already a 'Sam' so he is listing me as 'Sam2007' and I changed over. Actually I quite like the '2007' added on :) Just letting you know .. it's still me ;) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]6/23/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 20 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $7.25 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 4 [B]Mins:[/B] 56 [B]Seconds:[/B] 28
