Starting again!
Back to day 1 but I'm not giving up!! I hate how I feel! My chest hurts from coughing and hacking so much and I feel really shaky and fidgety. I'm afraid to eat! Every time I do, I want to smoke at's just not worth it to me cause I already don't like to eat. UGH! It seems like I'm never gonna get it! This is harder that getting off crack!!

Cigarettes are the hardest habit to break. Trust me, I know. Hang in there. You\'ll feel SO much better when you quit! Have you tried the gum? That\'s what worked for me. I wish I had your problem though about not liking to eat. I love to eat, too much! I\'m not really overweight anymore, but if I don\'t workout all the time, I would be as big as a house!!!
Don\'t give up Amench428!!! You can do it! You just have to get past the first week!
Hi Amench, Try not to get angry with your self. Every time you start over you are reinforcing the behavior of quitting. It\'s like practice if you will. You are doing great, just keep trying. I smoked for many years. When I quit I had to be really honest with myself. I cheated a few times in the 1st few months. I used Nicorette gum. It worked very well for me, helped a lot. Every time I felt that urge for a cig, gum took its place. I followed the directions on package and tapered of slowly as it suggested. When I stopped the NIcorette I then used regular gum. I\'ve been smoke free about 6 years, and even now I always have gum in my purse. They say once must replace a habit with another one. Good luck!
