    Hi all,
    I started my exams today. This is the first set of exams if done since giving up (almost 3 months ago). im stressing, if the truth be telt, ive done two exams...

    Three times today I almost walked into a shop and bought a pack.I had to stop myself asking someone at the bus stop for a fag twice.

    Ive never had craving like this since the first week off them...I'm not really looking for advice, because I know what its gonna be...but a few words of encouragement would go a long way...my exams finish thursday week....I know I can do it, but my friends are all non smokers and dont understand how difficult it is so theres no support there!

    hey froosh
    you know you dont want to smoke
    and all the craving are brought on by the stress of the exams
    remind yourself of this when they start calling
    your stronger than it
    one min
    one hour
    one day at a time
    and dont be afraid to write about it I found getting it off my chest(no pun intended) helped no end
    oh and good luck in the exams
    dont worry about them you've done the work now take the rewards

    cheers for that...Im almost finished today and I managed to keep strong and not smoke...you know when you give up for the first few days and you have to learn to do everything without smoking? well, I have just learned how to do exams without smoking so I know my summer exams will be alot easier...

    p.s. exams are goin really well, and all without fags!
