Quitting today

I have done it!! I quit today. (This time with the patch) Took a shower and stuck on a patch. Boy they do itch for a while. Not so bad now, thank goodness.

The morning hasn't been so bad. Have to get a few projects done and find other ways to keep busy.

Thanks for all your support

Congratulations on your quit! Yeah You!
Being a serial quitter like yourself, it sucks to know what you are in for the first few days and sometimes that is the worse part.
Just remember the bad part doesn't last long and is worth going thru to get to the reward of being free!
What has gotten me through the last 14 days of this quit is remembering how good I felt after these first few days are over....YOU CAN DO THIS!

You are in the right place for a succesful quit. Just spend as much time on here as possible, and when you get a crave, come on here, there is always someone right here to help you through it. Good luck with your quit.

Sandy,

Welcome! It's tough at first as you establish new ways of doing things that used to involve smoking; it does get easier!

Yes, I used the patch for awhile too. It does sting when you first put it on. I found I had less problems when I switched areas on my arms....my upper torso was too sensitive for the patch.

I'm glad you are here!! Let us know if you need anything!
