Hello everyone, OK so I started stopping this afternoon, I have been "cutting back" for the past few weeks and decided that today was going to be the day to stop a while ago. So I have finished the last cigarette of the pack. This will be the, who knows I lost count, that I have stopped. However the difference is that this time I am doing it for me, not because people have been pressuring me. So, I know what I am getting into and I need some help, I get the monster sized headaches and while meditation and relaxation are good suggestions, my job is not one where you can just �stop� for a few minutes. Are there any suggestions on how to battle the headaches while I am at the office?

Cranberry juice may help flush your system of the toxins faster than your body can do it alone. I have been drinking green tea by the gallon as well. You could ask your doctor for prescription strength motrin or let him/her suggest something. You could try some of the homeopathic type remedies at the drug store such as the migraine patches. You might look a little silly while wearing it but if you tell your co-workers what you are doing they will probably cut you some slack. Good luck!

Good evening STJacksonville, I didn't get headaches so I'm afraid I have no good advice. However, I am here now...So 'welcome!' Others will be along eventually to answer your question. There is a plethora of information at the SSC. If you haven't checked into the glove compartment <---- on the left of the screen, be sure and do so. Also, there is a 'search feature' at the top of the screen that you might find helpful. You are giving yourself a great Valentines present. Quitting is good for your heart too. :) All the best~ N2k [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 8/20/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 176 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 3,889 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $880 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 16 [B]Hrs:[/B] 18 [B]Mins:[/B] 45 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

St. Welcome to the site! please take the time to look around and use the tools provided. drinking lots of water may combat headaches. Take the time to prepare and really use your coping mechanisms. Please post often and let us know how we can help. Josie _____________________ The SSC Support Team.
