Its been almost 40 minutes since I gave up smoking. The patch is on and so far so good where the craving is concerned, but god my hands are doing my head in!!! Looks like i'll be spouting lots more dribble on here in the future, so please forgive me and show me lots of support - pleaasssseeeee :confused:

Take up embroidery, that will keep your hands busy or perhaps you could build an engine. Mucky hands do not make good rollups.

sorry to post a sensible reply T gal but i gave up 3 years ago after smoking for 25 + years and just like you i suffered the "what to do with my hands syndrome" every time i tried to give up.This time however i took zyban and believe me it takes away the cravings completely,i joined a quit smoking group and the zyban was prescribed by my doc,I have got no will power whatsoever and it worked for me.
Best of luck which ever way you try, and dont give up giving up

Thankyou and its very much appreciated. I'm not in the best of moods as i'm sure you can imagine. What i need here truely is support because my hubby has had a scare from the hospital concerning his lungs, so its very serious.
I was in a playful mood yesterday as most of you could see because I was all excited ect about doing the right thing, today has took its toll and i'm downright irritable and in a bad mood, so if i snap,,,

Day 1 - Not as bad as I expected. Cravings all afternoon but went as quickly as they came.
Day 2 - Feckin awful day today. Cravings all afternoon that wouldnt go. Shaggy's gettin very irritable. Almost bought a packet tonite but managed to resist. Honestly not looking forward to Day 3, just hope its a little better than today.
(hope you all dont mind me doing this, its a little way of helping myself)

Keep going girl you are nearly over the worst! Get day three over and from then on its does get easier, cos by then its just habit and not addiction cos you'll have done your cold turkey, the important thing to do is keep busy and keep your hands busy. :)

I've fecking failed !!!!! :( Shaggy is doing my nut in and is threatening to kill anyone in site. He was up nearly all night punching walls ect. I on the other hand have been quite calm until he started last night and now i've had 3 fags.
Going to keep myself busy and try all over again. Thanks for the tip Pat - here goes,,,,

Never mind - don't see it as failure, just try again as soon as possible. It's a bit like dieting, one good week then a bad day when you stuff everything in the house in your gob, doesn't mean you've failed, just fallen off the wagon temporarily!

Don't worry TG, soon you won't even be thinking about fags. You'll just be sick and tired of people telling you how much weight you've put on since you gave up. HEE HEEE HEE :D :D Surely embroidery would've been better than keep opening the biscuit tin.
Will you ever forgive me ?? :o

Being a big girly already, my biggest fear is putting more weight on (atkins diet here i come) so the answer to your question is NO - now get on the floor and beg like the dog you are, LMFAO :D

Blow the diet gal go for the sugar ,if ya dont you will end up in that trailer sooner than you think.I had to give it up cos the smoking stumped my height.It is a proven fact that it is harder for a lady to give it up as aposed to a man.But you can do it,do the same as AA,one day at a time.And if ya screw up get back on and try again.Will be worth it in the end honest,you know it makes sence :)

I gave up the hard way - major heart attack, minor stroke, intensive care - since when I've haven't smoked anything with tobacco in it! Grit those teeth, gird those loins and stick to the will power, it's worth it in the end. The cravings DO go away! :)

The doc said to me that sex was a good replacement for fag cravings. :) (That didn't come out right! I meant cigarette cravings!) :o . trouble is trying to find enough women to have forty sh*gs a day with! Or a woman willing to have forty sh*gs with! :( I'll think I'll go for a ciggy now!

Don't do the Atkins diet for God's sake!!!!! it makes you feel really really rough, as if cigarette cravings aren't bad enough. Seriously although it sounds naff cross stitch becomes seriously addictive as does computer patience :) It really does take your mind off the fags - and you'll have lovely pictures of rural scenes and maybe a toilet cover or two to put in your loo afterwards :eek:
