Give and get support around quitting
Hi everyone i am back at it again trying to quit. my quit date this time is Dec 8,2015. I have slipped just over a year ago when I got the word that my husband had prostate cancer. I am going to work hard to stay on track with it this time.
I would really love to be a part of this group my quit date is set fo the 24th I am just looking for all the support and advice I can get. I have stage 3 kidney disease and my blood pressure is through the roof I can do it this time. What advice do any of you have on over the counter help.
I am using Nicoderm CQ patches and it does help BUT I am still smoking 1/2 cigarette at a time for a total of about 2 a day rather than my usual pack a day. Been using patches for 1 week and am wondering if anyone else has been craving cigarettes even with the patch. Drinking water and eating mints and distracting myself with other things. I tried Chantix but had effects once I stopped taking them. Went back to smoking quickly after stopping it.
One day at a time.
I am trying to quit once again. I don't have a good support system so I am coming here for help. I am married with 3 kids but my non smoking husband refuses to tell me I can't smoke or not buy them when I am out!....lol. I smoke almost a pack a day and my quit date is February 26.I want to quit cold turkey because the non smoking meds don't agree with me. Anyone willing to be my coach , mentor and friend that has free text messages?
3 weeks today no smoking.Amen
