Asprilla 96 Posted January 9, 2006 Share Posted January 9, 2006 Well, its a whole 48 hours since I last had a smoke and so far its not causing me much in the way of problems but has anyone got any good ways of combatting effects of cold turkey when they do hit? 76855[/snapback] Just think to yourself: Asprilla's Foreskin is an irritating little cunt (apparently )...a pussy....a pathetic spineless individual..... Whatever you like, then consider this: I was man enough to give up over 2 years ago...no patches, no inhalers, nothing. If I can do it and you can't....what kind of arse are YOU!? PS I found reading Allen Carr's book helpful...he's not 100% right (ie you DO get cravings ) but the psychology of WHY you smoke and the fact that each cigarette only makes you want another one is useful. Good luck And BTW...I feel SO much better now you wouldn't believe it...the cravings stop killing after about 3 weeks, after that it's much easier...if you can get to 3 months you're almost there. Just remember NEVER have another one...it won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Fish 11053 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 You've got to keep your mind occupied, do yourself a favour and carry a deck of cards around the house. Also a clicky pen is useful for keeping the fingers busy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemmill 46961 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 My advice is just don't be such a soft shite. It's only a tab. Are you gonna let it chin you? Eh? EH? Good luck though. I've never been a smoker, but I can imagine what AF says is true - that you'll feel MILES better in yourself for getting shot of them. Plus you won't fucking stink anymore....well, not of tabs anyway. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

snakehips 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 After giving up for seven years previously, I don't think there's much advice I can give. Keep it up though. Mind you, after seven years without one, you should have been hit over the head with a stick for starting again you daft lad! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

luckypierre 0 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 Liquorice helped me. Though I have recently started again after being tab free for over a year, works just so depressing I cant help it . 2 a day doesnt classify me as being a smoker again in my book though Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You will find that within a month you're smoking more than you ever did before, its as if your body tries to reclaim that missed year. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Renton 22343 Posted January 10, 2006 Share Posted January 10, 2006 If you can give up for 7 years, you can give up for life, surely? Just do what you did before, or consider nicotine replacement or bupropion (from your GP) as an aid in the short term. After that will power is the only answer. Also I guess you could put the money you would have spent aside and use it to buy "treats" as an incentive, or even towards a gym membership....
