Dude, don't go back...! After 3 days, it's all in your head.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 14116031


That's a myth. Nicotine literally changes the brain chemistry. It really takes a lot longer than 3 days to truly get over them physically.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 24589165


Three days and I was home free, too. But, surely it's not the same for everyone.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 10564346


I hear ya. My mom quit over 30 years ago and never looked back. She quit with no problem. For me it doesn't really get bad until after 3 days. I quit over a month ago, and I still crave, but it's getting better. Keeping the stress level low helps.

Stress is a very biggie. That's what caused me to go back a few years ago. Stay with it this time if at all possible, stress will kill you, but so will tobacco, and maybe quicker. Best of luck to you.

Desert - this post is like a shot in the arm.

My kids are begging me to quit. Quit for 8 yrs. and went back (what an asshole I was) and now I really must. Am afraid my health is going, and will go down the shitter if I don't.

There should be some sort of permanent post for those of us who are trying to quit

Your post has given me the courage to quit again.

And, you are absolutely right - it is the most addictive drug going.

After 8 yrs, one cig had me going again.

Will start tomorrow a.m.

That means: no more morning coffee, alcohol, and a few other things.

After meals is a big one for me too.

I don't know how I'll drive w/o smoking! Used it as an excuse to stay awake.

I admire you man.

Keep up the amazing work!!!

Good luck. Will power is your friend. Avoid doing the things that caused you to smoke as much as you can. Coffee was my big one, had to abstain for a couple a weeks.

Great job to anyone quitting, I smoked for 25 yrs at 2 to 3 packs a day. Hated being controlled by something. I used the patch, and it helped the physical addiction. after the nicotine is out of the body then you deal with the mental addiction. I still went to bars and was still around smokers. It made me even stronger being around them, I knew I had so much more will power and cared about my health more than they did.
My hair and clothes dont stick and my house smells great now. I will never smoke again, oh and all the money I save and spend on clothes and nice things.applause

I'm quitting today after a decade of smoking. I quit a month ago for two weeks until I got some bad news and went back. It doesn't help if you've got friends around who keep reemphasizing that they can tell I want to smoke. For the beginning I'm going to lock myself in my house with minimal human interaction. It seemed to work last time. heh
Everytime I drink soda-pop or coffee I think about having another smoke. I found it more easy if I empty my entire environment of tobacco, including cigarette butts & ash.
Good luck to us all. =]

Truth is everyone is differnt. I haven't smoked for years now. But I still get cravings. The point is to understand why you get the cravings.

From time to time i pick up some nic gum. Some people turn their noIse up at this.

I see it as if it keeps me from lighting up a cigarette ever again, I'll chew that gum from time to time for the rest of my life.

Desert Fox respect to you man, I know how hard it is, I dont smoke but I have a habit im trying to quit.

I know im much better off without it but still its hard.

I guess that's why they call it an addiction.

They say it hijacks part of the brain making you think you NEED it.

Well its true

Good luck my friend
