QuittingGirl

Thanks so much everyone!! I definitely couldn't have come this far without all of your help! I can't believe it's been 4 months, time does fly. I still do get a craving every so often, but thankfully they don't last long. I look forward to the day when I don't get them anymore at all!! Onward to Month 5!!!

You are doing great SP!!!

I will say by the end of the month hopefully you will be at least 25% better, probably closer to 50%. I'm an impatient person and I wanted the urges to be gone on day one, which unfortunately didn't happen, but the best thing to get rid of the urges is Time!! You know the old saying, "Time heals all wounds"....and it's so true. The more time passes the easier it will get. Get yourself one of those tickers like we all have and it will show you your progress, how much time has passed since you last smoked, how much money you saved and how many cigarettes you haven't smoked! I come on here every day just to look at the ticker...LOL!!! Also, stick around this forum because the people on here are so great! They all know exactly what you are going through because everyone that has quit smoking had a "first day, "first month", etc. We all had "firsts". Everyone helped me a ton the first month and have been helping me all along. I don't think I could have done it without these wonderful people!!! Just keep coming back on here every day.

NOPE!

I know exactly what you are going through! That first month is horrible, tons of terrible urges, emotions that are going crazy. My family hated me that first month because I was so nasty! I would suck on cinnamon sticks or plastic straws as they helped me, or you can also chew gum. Go for a walk and try to do things that will make you forget about the urges. I know it's not easy, but it really does get better. I'm at 3 1/2 months now and I barely get any urges and when I do they are very short (maybe they last a minute, if that long). So I promise you it does get better!! Hang in there!!!
