kitty, Sounds like you are heading in the right direction on becoming a successful quitter. You have been to your doctor and he or she has started you off on the right track. The most common questions when quitting smoking is dealing with withdrawal symptoms. Each smoker has different withdrawal symptoms indeed yours will be unique! Although they may be unpleasant, they do pass. When you experience withdrawal symptoms, remind yourself that each symptom is a sign of recovery. Your body is in the process of healing itself. Think of withdrawal symptoms as growing pains. You need to come up with a plan! When a craving sets in, think about what are you going to do or what you can do to not give in! Try writing down some coping techniques to particular scenarios. For example, the house is clean there is nothing to do and the cravings kicks in. You have already eaten and you are in a state of panic. Try leaving the house, go for a walk, call a friend, jump on the site, have a shower. Anything that takes your mind off of temptation is beneficial. Quitting smoking is not easy and that is why we are here! We are here to help you learn on how to quit smoking and be successful. You can do this! Keep us posted and be sure to jump back on the site to let us know how you have coped with your cravings. We all learn from each other! Take care and congrats on quitting smoking, Melanie ____________________ The SSC Support Team

Hi, Kitty, hang in there. I had a bad craving yesterday because I had some friends over and they smoked and we had some beer and I couldn't get my eyes off their cigarettes. But suddenly I realised - hey, I MUST BE STRONGER THAN THIS! I do the thinking, and smoking was a habit (and a BAD one, too) - thinking can beat habit! And I got rid of the craving and had some water instead of more beer. Water is good for the diet, too :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/1/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 24 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 610 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �36 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 34 [B]Seconds:[/B] 26

Kitty...get a tall glass of icewater and do something to take your mind off of smoking. (I know easier said than done). Read, go to a movie, watch TV...anything....Just don't smoke. You can do it! 13 days is awesome!

Kitty... some days are just like that. Keep pushing through, it will pass. Just remember N.O.P.E. (not one puff ever) I remember day 14 like it was yesterday. I was ready to quit my job and go have "just one". I know exactly how you feel. You will make it! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 7/1/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 208 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,170 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $728 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 18 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 3 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30
