Hi Steelroots,
 
Congratulations on being quit for 9 days! Keep up the great work and celebrate your double digit day! Continue to read through the forums and post often! 
 
What coping mechanisms have been working the best for you?

Just completed my 9th day - tomorrow is a "double digit" day - hurray.

I'm doing better than I did all the other times I quit - Maybe I should have tried "cold turkey" the first time. LOL

Many thoughts everyday but cravings low for the first week and I'm very thankful for that.
