    Free and Healing for One Month, Eighteen Days, 12 Hours and 41 Minutes, while extending my life expectancy 4 Days and 7 Hours, by avoiding the use of 1238 nicotine delivery devices that would have cost me €452.87.

    Ok. im proud of myself. But i seem to be getting more & more cravings lately. Dont worry. I will never smoke again, but i wonder will they ever go away?

    Maybe its just because I am coming up exams and have alot of work on my plate lately and associate smoking with stress reduction. Anyone else felt that the 5-6 weeks period was bad for cravings?

    They are not physical cravings you are getting it is all in your head. You are no longer physically addicted to nicotine it is just situational and stress and you are remembering at those times you used to smoke, they pass very easy

    Yes, it's probably just the association with a stressful time. For myself and other people I've talked to, that stage between 3 weeks and 6 does seem to be tough for some of people - I've no idea why, but it seems common enough.

    Anyway, just hang in there - you're doing great and it will only get easier! Good luck in your exams too.
