Hi Im back :) the worst craving is over--the lollies are eaten too :) I tried to recall what exept dear hubby that caused this moment IT was the stress of housework- the boredom that i felt doing it while he was watching TV and the coffee. Yes i had a few more coffees that i normally have and i think that was a trigger as well..:( ann [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 20 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 895 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $318 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 1 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 3 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58

Hi ALL I Had a few troubling days!! The worst was the day when i had 4 hours of constant mindtalk thought i was going crazy-really felt like crawling out of my skin. It was so bad i went to Doc who gave me a nightsedation--i woke up and it felt a bit better. IAM STILL SMOKEFREE!! Thank God--I told Doc of my self-harm idea--about cutting myself on my little finger (like cut it off sort off :( ) To have pain somewhere else, A real pain sort of!! I know this sounds crazy--i have NEVER had these feelings before,, Its really stupid,, I am almost embarrassed of even thinking in those lines.. But, today, I can assure you that is gone--after the sleep a woke up and could focus a bit better on the situation.. I do not know why i am craving still (not all the time) but on daily basis and then this one that was so bad i thought i was going crazy?? However, I talked to a lady who is intrested in naturopathy like herbs and staff--she said something about my pancreas--that that one could be the cause of my still very strong craving?? Do anyone heard about this?? I thought after 48hours sort of its all mental not physical?/ ann [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/6/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 22 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 1,008 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $349.8 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 1 [B]Mins:[/B] 39 [B]Seconds:[/B] 37

Hi All I really want to start to say how thankful i am that i got you/ I also want to say that i have managged to get hold of that Allen Carr book here Down Under.. I have just started to read it.. I do not know.. I am struggling a lot as you know :( But i am also sick and tired of failing over and over and over again. At least i want to make it to the 100day mark!!! That will be more than I EVER DONE!! YES>> I really want to give up smoking--But it seems like i given up on giving up.. I do not know?? I am so tired of this.. NO i am Not ENJOYING THESE WITHDRAWALS AT ALL!!! The are Mentally Draining... I have no idea why i was even thinking of self-harming the other day?? That have never come across my mind before EVER!! Thats sick.. However,, well i did,, I was craving so bad that i felt i was going to cut of my little finger on my left hand and actually had a scissor ready to do it.. I was thinking that at least i really have physical pain then and not this (the feeling i had those long dragging hours)) I was stunned,, for hours and hours it went on i was so anxoious and mentally sick and could not really tell what i was thinking just wanted it to stop.. I took 2 sleeping pills at 4pm slept an hour or 2 and then woke up less tense, i could actually think a bit clearer. I am on Zyban and take chewing gum as well -so i should be ok?? well, I am not!! Why?? i do not know?/ :( Then i can be ok for a few hours or so just to start again.. I really hope i can beat this??

Hi Anne, Did you enjoy your lollies? Ignore your Dh right back. They can be so self focused some times. Show him what you are made of and dont listen to his negative attitude. You are doing really well. I hit a wall 2 days ago. It must be a stage in the qiut process to find it hard approaching the 3 week mark. You should be so proud of yourself and although it annoys you that DH is not helping with the housework at least it is keeping you busy and keeping you away from the cigs. But never tell him that. Keep it up. You can do it. Keep posting. Its really helping me through the rough patches.
