Thankyou all.
 
I feel great. Without being complacent about the seriousness of my situation, i feel like i've cracked the case. Everything is a hell of a lot easier. I could quite happily live the rest of my life with the cravings i've felt the last two days. The sore throat has kicked in, the coughing has eased, even the dizzy spells have passed. Thankyou Spacecas, the controled breathing idea sorted it out.
. I'm not even that bothered by the smoke at my moms, its more of a further reminder why i dont want to smoke than a temptation. When i do get a craving i just think of the hairs in my lungs burning, that tends to sort me out quickily.
I found a bit of a secret weapon that works for me. I promise my daughters that im not going to smoke tomorrow, every evening when i skype them. Thats the backup plan incase imagining burning lung hair doesnt work.
 
How will i reward myself, I dont really know.
