Well, I finally did it!!! After 20 yrs of smoking, I have decided to try to stop. I have started the patch and so far so good. Maybe this time I will be able to take this monkey and throw him off my back for good!!!! Have found out that the only time today that I missed having a smoke was when I had lunch and while driving. Will let you know how I do. Havent felt like killing anyone yet, so thats a good sign, but tomorrow is another day...LOL :: red dev

Excellent! Well done on your decision to kick. A heartfelt wish of good luck do I throw your way.
hey! well done you!!
i hope you stick to it and mange to kick this habit for good!!
i wish you luck!!
 
That's great. Hope you get through this day too 🙂 which I'm sure you will, you seem very determined. Good luck!
 
Well done to you, I know how hard it is. I've been trying, I've smoked for a few years now on and off and i've just started a new job. I was done fine until i've started and with all the stress of the work i've found myself going out at lunchtime.

I tend to find I smoke more when i'm at home but if I keep myself busy I don't. The only other time I feel myself really craving them is when i'm drinking.

100% know what you mean
I gave up for quite a while because of high blood pressure but, what with one thing and another (work and flying mainly), I started again. So I'm going to have to start quitting all over again. Why is it so much easier to stay smoking than to give the damn things up?

Not sure, but I think it has something to do with the government needing the tax money...;)
I know, I tried quitting a few weeks agon and i was doing pretty well but then i started working in a warehouse on my own and have nothing to do so started again having 1 or 2 a day ad now I've managed to get msyelf back on 10, which is so stupid and i tried stopping again but it ends up making me depressed and snapping ate evryone i see for no reason.

Seriously congrats and keep it up
 
Wishing you the best of luck here as I quit about a year ago. It hasn't been easy, but I've stuck with it. I have alot of smokers around me which, of course, only makes it harder!

I'm wishing you the best. Remember-stay strong and take it one day at a time.
 
Good job. I just recently quit too. This is day 24 with no cigarettes for me. Granted I have only been smoking 6 years (not 20), but it is still very tough.
 
Go you SD 😀
Really, I've never done that ('cause I've never started, uh), but I know it must be oh so difficult so this is great of you, best of luck and all.
 
Thanks everyone for your support!!!!!!! Thought it would really be hard at work today but I survived, still have to go outside every once and a while (habit) only now its to smell the fresh air. The next step will be a diet to get rid of all the weight I gain from snacking... LOL P.S. Day 2 and no deaths or serious injuries to anyone (maybe there is hope yet..hehehe). Thanks again to everyone!!!!!!

One day at a time! Just like any addiction! You go! Your whole family will thank you!
Hey Well done! Just keep your self going! Go for it!!!! :smilieswi
 
Day 4 and still havent had a smoke!!!! Although day 3 was a killer, I wanted to rip everyones head off and just about did. Had a major hissy fit, got mad at hubby and left (went for a walk). I am determined to make it!!! Thanks for all the support, it is much appreciated!!!!! Chewing lots and lots of gum, going to end up with TMJ...LOL :baby3:
 
Well I finished my last packet and not buying anymore. If I keep myself busy then I won't miss them or have time to go to the store.

Today is going to be very interesting as its always the worst day of the week for me at work.
