im back!

on my last attempt i managed seven weeks off cigarettes but stupidly went back on them. I have re-read all my previous posts and am ready to start again! All help appreciated, i found this site helped me alot on my last attempt.

Don't be discouraged.

It took me three attempts to get it right.

Still going great guns for what will be a year soon. Just take it one step at a time. Tea, and chewing gum (not nicotine-I feel they're nothing but a crutch) will help.

If you can knock a week out of it at all, you're elected. The cravings do get less and less (after seven weeks you probably know that) as time goes by, and it gets so much easier.

You will think about them less and less as time goes by. I had a craving for a cigar last night-but it passed in seconds, and was the first I'd had in months.

Stick with it, you will prevail.

well that attempt didnt work!!! Im really finding it so hard this time, practically everyweek i have been picking a day to start, lasting about 5 hours and giving in, its awful. Well today is another one of those days! Hope everyone else is doing well.

Not to worry Dub, you'll get there:D

Keep trying different ways, methods, hobbies, friends etc until you find what works for you and when you are ready and REALLY want to stop smoking and the time is right you'll do it!!!
