This is the one where none of us fail! -Quitting fags thread.

[charliecatthenonsmoker]

Waiting for some friends to join me!

Thanks CC, have downloaded, apparently, clicked yes to start the installation, then nothing? How do I know it's been installed, and where do I find it on my computer?

May I join this thread - sorry don't understand much of it/haven't read it, am a "social smoker" but really ned to stop.

Oh...er...leave it and see what happens if you go to your add remove programs bit if its installed it should be there, in fact there should be a thingy on your desktop.

Hi Sykes, there are a fair few of us here...do you want us to convince you you should or have you set a date?

i missed the last one too mammya, only just got round to doing it...

thanks for the turbolister cc, am installing now. it's really funny, just had a look at each of my things and 2/3 people have had a look as well - dh and i were cracking up because it's probably just us!!!

Hmmm, can't see anything on my desktop, will try the add/remove programme thingy.

Hi Sykes, welcome! What do you mean exactly by "social smoker"? Do you only smoke when you're with smokers, or only when you go out, or only when you drink? IMHO I think you're right to want to stop as you're just on a slippery slope really, you start as a social smoker and end up puffing 10-20 a day!

Well it's definitely not there, perhaps I need to do the full setup rather than the web setup, but not tonight as it's going to take forever (haven't got broadband) and I need to go to bed soon.

Must go to bed now, keep trying with the turbo lister...did a wee grey box come up to install it?

Hi Sykes, welcome! don't worry about all the stuff we chat about, like cc said earlier 'more chatting, less chuffing'! we are all at different stages - cc's reigning queen at the mo something like a month already!!!

i'm shortly behind, 3wk4d, used to smoke for 10yrs, stopped when pregnant with ds1 (2yrs ago) and started again after ds2 (he is 6mths) what's your history?

btw fg, i always used the 1mg because of the amount i smoked.

night night girls see you tomorrow xxx

Ok girls night night sleep tight, thinking of nude poser dribbling.....

Thanks for messages, never smoke until I drink, then smoke hugely. Yes, need a date, pleae. Have been a social smoker for ab0ut 20 years and can stil go for two weeks no smoking. But go mad when I drink -as in smokes 10/20.

Ok, well have one last night out smoking...then KNOW that that is it...no more. Night for now Sykes been here for hours and MUST leavexx

I'm off too guys, bonne nuit!

How the heck do you guys manage to stay up so late in the evening? You must have late-rising kids surely? My little darling's up at 6.30 so if I'm not in bed asleep around 11ish I'm a total wreck the next day ...

STILL no smokes. And STILL woke up with a headache this morning ...

Awwww hope your feeling better this morning prefernot are you popping any paracetamol or anything?
I dont usually stay up so late, my mum said she was gonna ring me to get me up in the morning so I knew it didnt matter if I slept in as the phone would rudely wake me up anyway.
I fall out of bed at 8 am and somehow, dont ask me how, i get 3 lunches, and 2 kids and me dressed clean teethbrushed and hair done all in half an hour and leave at 8.30.
I never shout, in fact I dont tend to speak till we are at the door( Right are we ready?) and the kids are excellent and dont whinge that they only woke up 31 mins ago and are now leaving even though bear in the big blue house is still on!
I cannot stand stressing out about it and if I get up early I tend to end up rushing??? Dunno weird.
We are all bathed the night before..
I seriously need to get some b6 pills or something, my periods are sending me slightly loopy I feel.

just a quickie as dd has pal here, lol at nudie poser story!!! cc have you tried tincture of agnus castus, meant to be v good, worked for me for a while for pmt... gotta rush, off to glasgow till sat night - have good non faggy clean lunged w'end girls! f xxx

ps dh was quite concerned that I'd done a coupla quick specks for the guy's nipples but taken a great deal of care & attention while drawing his danglies.

I have polietly ignore your mentionings of (copyied and pasted) tincture of agnus castus.WTF is that and asim desperate where can I buy it? Have a nice smoke free weekend yourself FG

Right Ill start that again...as I have NO IDEA what tincture of agnus castus (ive just copied and pasted that) is I have politely ignored your mentionings of it before. But as im desperate WTF is it and where can I get some please???

go here and order online under remedies agnus castus but i don't know what strength you will need so best bet is to phone and ask. i get ds1's homeopathic meds here and they're quite speedy.

hi all, doing okay here having a wee break before kids emerge from nap. ds1 was great at his final settling in day and he's on 2 days next week eek!

how are you guys?

prefernot, my ds1 goes to bed at 8:30ish and wakes at anything between 6:30 and 7:45 but lovely dh gets up as he has to get ready for work anyway and lets me sleep an extra hour with ds2. at one point i was on the pc till 3am every night obsessed with mnet and ebay!!! finally collapsed though and try not to be on later than 1am but most of you lot have gone to bed by hten anyway....

why isn't it working?!!! try again

oh, go to www.helios.co.uk !!!

Oh lucky you all not having to get up before 7am every morning. I see 7am as a real lie-in these days ...

Yes, I'm paracetamol popping. Probably going to get addicted to them next. Did other non-patch wearing giver-uppers get headaches?

It's strange today. Every now and then I remember that there might be something I might like to nip off and do and then after a brief memory lapse about what it is I remember that it's having a fag!! Then I get a horrible pathetic cringy craving in my lungs and take some deep breaths, remind myself how furious I would be if I backed out now as these first few days are so hellish and try to think about something else.

You keep going prefernot, remind yourself how well you are doing just to decide to give up and to be able to put up with all this grief that the horrible drug does to you! At least if you crack this thing now, you will never have to go through the hell of headaches, palpitations etc. again!! one of these fine days, you will look back and realise how well you feel! remember that you are going cold turkey so it IS a lot braver and harder too! you're doing well xx

btw at least dd's not waking up during the night, there are many stories about that just met a lady the other day whose 7mth won't settle for long during the night and she's up constantly then having to go back to work in 2 wks. NIGHTMARE! if it's any consolation i think most kids wake up around that time, she's about 2 isn't she? what time does she get to bed, obviously the earlier to bed the earlier to rise...
