Hi everyone! I don't see much activity on here today or maybe I am missing something. Today is Day Two for me and I continue to have a killer headache. I have took ibuprofen, Tylenol, and nothing is working ugh. Just trying to keep my eyes open. Staring at a computer for 9 hours sure is not helping!
Thank you!
Happy day two! I've seen you try a couple times now and I gotta hand it to you. I always had more space between my relapses and my start overs. You are right back at it, and I think that's great. The physical battle of the first part of the quit can be just that, a battle. It gets better. Promise promise.
You can do it, I am rooting for you!

Hello ‘Jen
I’m just sitting here hoping you had a good day two
It’s day two again for me as well it’s been a really rough day two Really stressed lotta cravings but I made it through I hope you did too i
Honestly if it wasn’t for the site I don’t know if I would’ve made it today I might just said I’ll try again next week but I made it through day two I kept thinking I got this I’m gonna have to go Through the discomfort one time or the other another or I’m going to continue to have cravings anyway I hope you had a good day I wish you the best of luck no matter what
I keep thinking every time I give in and continue to smoke I continue to have this pain and These cravings the only way they’re going to stop is to stop smoking good luck to both of us have a great night
Hi Jen_819! Happy day 2! Headaches suck. Only thing I can suggest is drink enough water. Hope you feel better soon.
Yes that is so true!!! Drink lots of water it does help headaches. Also it’s a distraction during it then going to the bathroom 
. Only kidding. But drink it and read everything on this site to help you. We are all rooting for you
Congrats Jen. I'm out town.

Hey Jen...day 4 for me and i am eating everything but the kitchen sink...i havent had a headache but my cravings are out of this world..Good luck to you...and to both of us! We can do this!
You are doing great @Suzinut, my Quit Buddy! R
Congrats on two days of freedom. Try increasing your water intake. That may help the headache.
Jen_819 Yes Hydration is the key Other things you may want to avoid are processed foods Eat fresh food instead.
Stay away from sugar and sugary drinks Don't go hungry
Congratulations on day 2
Jen_819, am just reading your post; somehow missed it before. For me, when I had the headaches, I had a cup of coffee when I took the pain med. Caffeine opens up your blood vessels to help increase oxygen to your brain which, for soe, helps to reduce or even eliminate headache pain. I hope you are doing better today...
Hi Jen_819 ... hon I hate headaches, I suffer with migraines and when I quit smoking the first week was awful...hang tough, take the headache pills and this evening close your eyes with a cold compress on your head...smoking will not help...you never want to do day 1 or week one again...Congratulations Jen on Day 2...feel better ~ Colleen 673 DOF
