Blue Cloud here, this did start out as my thread John and thank you so much for the song. I remember it well. Cheeks we started at the same time and I am sorry to hear you are having a rough morning. Drink lots of juice and stay busy. Mornings are alwys the toughest for me. The junkie in me is wanting to get his day started but I am hanging in there and not giving in. This quit belongs to me.

Cheeks Im a little late responding to this, so I hope you're feeling a bit better by now Bluecloud is right on with the neurotransmitter changes occurring. Casey's post about the mood changes and suggestions were helpful to me at one point when I could harldy recognize myself, maybe for you too? Maybe the increased urges have something to do with the one week milestone? I know I had a similar increase in intensity then, as well as at one month. I finally realized I was used to rewarding myself for jobs well done by smoking, so since I had been so looking forward to these milestones, I felt like I was missing something when I didn't have the nicotine reward. Not consciously, but by subconscious association. Once I realized this, it was much easier to be prepared for milestones, knowing the urges might increase, and what they were about, and by rewarding myself for each one. I know you were planning a haircut, hope you did that. No matter what, this will pass. You are doing great! -aloha [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/22/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 112 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,480 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $761.60 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 15 [B]Hrs:[/B] 16 [B]Mins:[/B] 55 [B]Seconds:[/B] 50
