Made it through another day...

quitting nicotine smoking addiction habit

Well... today was a lot harder. I found myself craving a cigarette just about non-stop. I am feeling bitter and aggressive. This sucks.

Something new... I'm sweating profusely. Not so bad when I chew the gum with the patch on but this is still really annoying. I'm hoping a nice long shower will help out.

Good luck! I quit cold turkey around the 7th of May. I'm doing pretty well, but I've noticed that I get irritated very easily.

Keep up the good work!

For how long have you been smoking to have these withdrawal symptoms? Sounds really tough but you can do this!

Try replacing a cigarette with a neon pink bendy straw. When you get the urge to smoke, suck in some air through the straw and feel like an idiot. Then find something else to do.

I smoked causally from 6 to 16 then heavily from then until a couple days ago.

Good luck! I've heard the third day is the worst. But don't give in! Just think how ashamed all of us will be if you don't quit.

I quit caffeine (I know, not as crazy as Cigarettes) a few months ago and the second and third day were the worst. But after that third day, my cravings went away and I was left feeling refreshed almost all day without a sip of coffee. Feels great!
