Congratulations! You'll make it.
When I quit I told myself if I could go four days, I would never smoke again --- and it's been years and I am not even tempted now.
Just remember --- nicotine addiction works in devious ways --- if you become stressed, you're going to want a ciggie --- but don't give in!

I know, I know, I know but pray for me! this is the farthest I've ever come and I am not going to blow this.
However, remember, I still have this little nicotine inhaler I'm sucking on.....I feel like a cheater. But, it's working so... I'm breaking the habit and weaning off the nicotine. Till I'm off of it too I can't and won't call it a success!!
Thank you for all of your support, friends.
Donna I'm so happy for you too. Did you just lay them down or use supplements?
Love and support
Debbie :D

I used Nicorette gum --- I was so horribly addicted that I broke out in a sweat and shook without it. It wasn't easy to quit even with the gum.
I didn't worry too much about weaning myself from the gum --- in fact it took me nearly six months to be totally free of the gum. Don't try to rush it. It took you a long time to become addicted and it's not going to go away in a week --- or even a month.
Sending encouraging hugs,
Donna

My body is jerking around. It's so weird, But I think the steriods are making that worse. I know one thing....whatever I've git going in my bronch. tubes is hanging around long enough to make sure I'm scared to ever smoke again.
I had my first bit of coffee without my Nicotrol this morning, and I did just fine.
Thank you so much for the encouragement. My husband made the big mistake of asking me yesterday if I had started to cut down on the Nicotrol yet.... :mad: I don't think he will ask again for a while :eek: :D
Bless his heart, he's a wonderful man and didn't know the danger he was placing himself in (LOL :D ). I did apologize, later and explained how I feel.
Love and support and very grateful hugs!!!
