The craving will pass. You know why you quit. Having a smoke wont change anything you'll only feel like crap..2 weeks is a great start... don't blow it. I remember week 3 for me I felt the craving for ash. I would've licked an ashtray had I seen one. I burnt some toast and ate the black part. When the craving was real bad I would have some strong black coffee. I'd say 1 more week and the worst will be over. Congrats on the 2 weeks. Hang in there you can do it.
Roll call and pledge helped me.
Take care

First off congrats on two weeks of being smoke free. You are well past the physical addiction but now comes the hard part....retraining your brain to think like a nonsmoker. There are some things you can do to help with the craves. Drink water when you feel a crave coming on, water is a great crave buster. Try sucking on a whole clove for 20 min. The clove oil will numb your tongue a bit, your breath will smell great and cigs will taste like total crap. You might want to try puffing on a cinnamon stick, cinnamon is also a good crave buster. Freeze some grapes and pop them in your mouth. They feel good, they last a while and they help. Tell yourself NOPE (Not One Puff Ever) when you feel a crave coming on. REWARD YOURSELF! Your brain is looking for that "ahhhhhhhhh" sensation it got when you lit up. Reward yourself each and every day that you remain smoke free. I did the in home spa, complete with scented candles, bubble bath, soft music, cucumber slices for my eyes and a goblet of ice water to sip. Another thing I did was to buy some new music. It's a whole lot less expensive than buying cigs and lasts a whole lot longer too. Take a scenic ride, crank up the radio and sing to your heart's content. You will think of ways to reward yourself. Finally remember that a crave is just a crave, it is not a command and it will pass. Keep up the great quit....you CAN do this!

Welcome to the family Nyiaca, now try to relax.
We only think the ciggie is a reward and makes us feel better. In research, it really doesn't. There are approx. 4,000 chemicals that are in cigarettes, several of them work on the pleasure centers in our brain. At 2 WEEKS (HUGE congrats) the majority of chemicals are out of our systems, now is just the HABIT of smoking we miss. I cut straws in half and when a crave hit would whip one out. I would hold it like a cig, tapping off imaginary ashes and even going so far as to inhale thru them. All I got was good clean air. Try it. Stick around and join us for our daily Roll Call and Pledge.. It is a way to keep accountable and also a way we can get to know each other. We are a large, diverse group of people from all over the world, all with the same goal. To learn how to live smoke free.
We welcome you.
Lots of luck and tick around, Mayberry
