SO TRUE ~~~ [quote] Occupy your time, keep a positive attitude, keep your reasons for quitting in the forefront of your mind, clear your mind of negative thoughts and excuses. Stand up straight, look the devil in the eye, and tell him to go to hell.

I bumped a thread up in the Coping with Withdrawal Symptoms forum, but decided to repost it here. It�s written by Darkmyer/Mark and has loads of really useful information � especially for new quitters. Darkmyer�s post: This is not a complete list and I have drawn on many sources to compile this , but hopefully it will take long enough to read to let at least one craving pass. Thanks to everyone for their inspiration and ideas and if i have borrowed your words it is because they are better than mine. Anger and moodiness Anger peaks for the average quitter on Day 2, leveling out to manageable levels by Day 5. Before you quit, plan ways to vent this unavoidable frustrations without hurting family, friends, co-workers, or your boss . Walk, run, swim, shoot baskets, shout into a pillow, shout over a valley (preferably unoccupied!), punch the wall, this non-source anger is finite, in other words, its normal and will pass.

Be patient with yourself, quitting smoking is a big life move. Forgive yourself the side effects of the whole thing, you are moving forward in ways you cannot comprehend now. Poor concentration and focus could also be due to low blood sugar. Nicotine releases huge amounts of fatty sugars into our blood, by triggering the brain to release adrenaline, which in turn causes the body to revert to 'fight or flight mode', releasing the fatty sugars. This is why many smokers skip breakfast or lunch without feeling hungry, they are taxing their bodies into constant 'alert mode'. When we stop smoking, the fat-feeding frenzies triggered by adrenaline are halted. Continuing to skip meals will plummet your blood sugars along with your concentration. Spread your food out more evenly over a day's time. Strong fruit juices like 100% cranberry or purpl
