Cold Turkey !!!!

19 years ago 0 +0 / -0 695

bermuda good job!! The worst week is over!! this is the first day without any nic gum or patch.. Nothing!! Ithas not been very easy. I was at work so all I could do was eat and drink or chew gum.. I did all of that. I wished I had gone cold turkey to begin with.. But maybe I would not have made it this far if I had not had some help. Don't Know.

You are gettin er done and congratulations to you for that. I smoked for over 58 years and have had one quit, this one, and it was cold turkey. It sure as hell ain't for the timid but it can be done and I am living proof :p I wish you continued success; the next few weeks will be tough but then it starts to get easier.

Congrats' for the cold turkey approach to the quit. I had to be a Warm Chicken, but quit none the less. You are stronger than I and I just hope and pray that you have, or will, replace any nake craving with coping knowledge. For those interested, insurance companies can detect nicotine in your body for as long as 12 months without smoking. Not sure what that means except to say that the sooner the better in quitting.
