Quitting Smoking pt. 3

smoking quitting habit nicotine

So... today I only had one piece of gum. I was a dick all day and everyone was saying I was being mean.

I want a cigarette so bad. I can smell and taste them as though I just smoked one. That's how badly I'm craving one.

My taste is starting to improve which is cool. I had a pretty strong sense of taste before so hopefully it will only get better from here and I'll be able to taste more subtle flavors in food.

I'm still having trouble sleeping, it takes hours to fall asleep. Oh well. It'll level out soon I hope.

That weird sweating thing stopped. I'm not sure if that was caused by the patches or what...

Oh! You're quitting smoking! Bravo! I had kind of wondered what had crawled up your ass and died, now I know

I saw that Punk recommended sucking through a straw - that really worked for my grandmother. She had smoked for like 50 years, and that's how she quit.

I got a couple of nice e-cigs, you can get them with different amounts or even no nicotine in them. It helps with the need to do the physical act and gives you the taste (or whatever taste you want, I have several flavors of liquid). I know it's not for everyone, but I haven't smoked a cigarette in over a week and I feel pretty damn good so I'm singing their praises xD

Those e-cigs make me cough horribly. Probably because I'm a menthol smoker and the menthol e-cigs are particularly harsh. I've officially been 24 hours with no nicotine of any form...

I feel like I'm crawling out of my skin.
