I posted in your messages sweetie, hold tight and be strong you have so much to live for smoke-free, watch a movie, call your girlfriend(?), or just a friend, or like in the message I sent you, get lost in whyquit.com and read all the young people's stories....(((HUGS))) You can do it, stay quit, just do it!!!

I totally understand you. I have been on chantyx for about 8 weeks now, and sometimes you just think about it and your mouth starts to water. What helps me is to chew spirment gum. I know that sounds stupid, but it helps!!! Try it. Hold on!! You can make it.

Take a good walk and breathe that wonderful fresh air. The urge will pass. Get on the computer and come here to DS. We will help you get through this.

Hi my friend! The cravings are not going to go away instantly because what they actually are is your body going into nicotine withdrawal. It takes 3-5 days for all the nicotine to leave your body. The psychological craves seem as bad as the physical withdrawal and take longer to go away completely. First you really have to WANT to quit smoking. then you have to change your attitude from thinking about where your next cigarette is coming from to being proud of yourself for going days without smoking. Now if you can go days then you sure can go at least a week. It's really important to drink a lot of water and even drink some orange juice. Stay away from soda and Red Bull and junk food. They make the craves worse. Eat fresh fruit like apples and pears, whatever is in the house. Go for a bike ride or a walk. Hang out with friends who don't smoke. Hang out in places where you can't smoke. I know you can beat this addiction but it all starts with not wanting to smoke anymore and that my friend has to come from within you.

Hey!
