OK so it has been 14 weeks since I quit. Today, is a little difficult. I am struggling with with boredom, or better yet, lack of work, and that leads to wanting to smoke. The day is half way over, and I am going to find something to do now. Hope everyone has a good day.

Ok So i was talking to lillith and we decided we are gonna pull in everyone else here who has quit and we are all obviously at different stages have used different methods have shared stories and what have you.....
Story telling...not the same... "What can I expect when I quit smoking?" this seems to be a big question... So let put together this what to expect thing so our sisters n brothers who come across this thread will eventually see all we are compiling in our journeys to stay smoke free.... So I will start.. Method - Patch (expired patches i might add, cause im a cheap twit and had no desire to spend money on these things...(even though i would purchase cigarettes ) ) Currently 21 hours from 8 weeks so we will just call it 8 weeks... The first 5 days mentally were a breeze, i was emotionally and mentally ready for this by a long shot so it seemed this was gonna be easy. Now the heartburn intense heartburn for about three weeks kept me stockpiled in antacids and i think this is a side affect of the patch not sure. the first 5 weeks were amazing...for me my state of mind and knowing where i want to be. physically not so much my body is wrecked, i cant sleep and yet im tired, im energetic and sleepy all at the same time. and i physically feel starved and full at the same time. the last 2 weeks---im drained and tired and being that makes for breaking down my guarded self..i also am having trouble breathing and spent those 2 weeks "ten minutes from buying a pack", everything seemed to get on my nerves.... THIS community saved my arse, everyone rallied around me and for that i currently have a tear in my eye, when my own family turned their back on me i had this family to say "dont smoke" "dig your heels in (thank you Doc)" today i am not having any breathing issues...i feel good physically however im having issues concentrating...this is where im at at 8 weeks...however the point being im at 8 weeks. diggin my inbtw incubus, if i ever get to meet you i will be the one wearing a cute pair of blue heels for sure...
