Hi Ericon, You sound like your doing great. Glad to hear it. Don't worry about using stir sticks or pieces of a straw. I use my straws everyday to get over the rough spots. If something works, use it!! I'll be thinking of you, stay strong.

Hi Ericon good for you day 1 almost over. I cut straws in 3 pieces and chew on them all day. Nothing wrong with that, sure helps, so does cold water and deep breathing. Carry on the good fight one day at a time :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 6/13/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 47 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 719 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $188 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 6 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 46 [B]Seconds:[/B] 9

Congrats to you for giving yourself such a wonderful gift. A smoke free life is such an awesome thing to have! I'll be sending a prayer your way. You can make it through Hell & Heck week. I know you can! They were not as bad as I thought they were going to be. Hopefully they won't be for you either. Believe in yourself.

Ericon & JyNM, Glad to see your both doing so well. It though but hang in there and don't forget to reward yourself for every craving you surpass and smoke free day you acheive! Ericon, try counting to three each time you inhale and exhale. Good luck to you both! Keep us posted, Danielle __________________________ The SSC Support Team

Stress, tension, anxiety...all can lead to physical pain, tense muscles. Be sure to drink plenty of water and take the time to breathe deeply and relax your whole body. It isn't easy, but I know that you can do it!
