Hey all, I had my last cigarette and started the patch for my birthday. I have been smoking since I was 18 and finally had enough! So far it has been 5 days and I honestly have never felt better. I haven't had any cravings and energy levels have increased. I have found myself "snacking" more, but it is on grapes and carrots and the like. I have also started to learn sign language to keep my hands and brain preoccupied. Also thinking about learning a new language. Every one of you have my support in stopping for good and Kudos go out to those who are doing this cold turkey. I know it is difficult but we can do this!!

Hiya, this is 3rd time lucky for me, im quitting cold turkey this time and am on day 10. The first few days were quite brutal but i think im over the worst.
I usually end up back on them when i drink but i had a few drinks and was not tempted so fingers crossed i can do it this time.
My advice to anyone is stick at it, those first few days can be a nightmare but it does pass i promise you.
Good luck everyone, heres to a smoke free 2012 xx0 -
Thank you for the support and I wish you the best of luck! More power to you for going cold turkey!!0
