Gawain 0 #28 November 2, 2003 Been a year without myself. I still gained weight, but for some reason, the obsession to smoke has not hit me with significant force! I literally had to surrender to what cigarette smoking was doing. The straw that broke the camel's back (my brand BTW, along with Turkish Tekels) was when I decided I wasn't going to give up the primo-parking spot at work (in the shade, it was a hot Santa-Ana windy day). Think of how you would go out of your way to smoke! To get smokes! It's not worth it!!! You'll sleep better too! Really! So I try and I scream and I beg and I sigh Just to prove I'm alive, and it's alright 'Cause tonight there's a way I'll make light of my treacherous life Make light!

RippedCord 0 #29 November 2, 2003 I've got this down to a science now: For me, day 4, after 72 hours, is always the magic time for me when 99% of the physical pain and discomfort has passed. My mind is a also a little spacy for about 3 more weeks while my brain learns how to function without the nicotine. My last quit date was May 8, 2003 at 6pm--59 days later, I started skydiving.

Oh yeah, you might want to take it easy on any large consumption of alcohol for a little while. Serious trigger for smoking!!

meatmissile 0 #31 November 2, 2003 Hell, am I the only one here taking Zyban? It has been almost three weeks for me now, previous record was twelve hours (without The Drug, that is ) -- ZZZzzzz.... Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kai2k1 0 #32 November 2, 2003 My insurance plan doesn't cover zyban otherwise i would have been on it in a flash. GAWAIN: I was testing myself to see how bad the cravings would have got. Im not planning on getting hammered anytime soon. Im trying to find out just how much i can take.
