Hi all
Good going Heather with your quit. Tough going the first few days, been there. Deep breathing and drinking more fluids seems to be the most popular fixes on this site. Keeping busy and constantly reminding myself the reasons I quit helped. I found just concentrating on one day at a time was excellent advice. The discomfort of the few weeks suck but you will get stronger as you learn to ignore the triggers and urges. Hang on......
Lins good move to quit while you are still young. I smoked for 37 yrs, bad move. Dum Dum's will work. I still chew gum to fill in for the past smoke breaks. Might sound dumb but I took straws cut down to cigarette lengths and pretend to smoke during my first month. It really did help. I know you are dreading Monday but give it shot it might not be as bad as you imagine. You can do this.
Look at it this way. We can keep much tax money out of Ohio's politicians pockets.
BTW since I quit I have saved almost $1,300. That's a chunck of change.
