Stopping smoking. First day on patches.

Keep it up mate. It can only get easier

Now over a week without 1 cigarette.

Didn't bother with the patches today, as I figured the aching wouldn't go away as long as I was teasing my body with nicotine. Actually a bit better without the patch physically. Mentally, I have to keep telling myself that one cigarette will mean I can't quit, despite wanting one badly regularly. It really is hard, but I'm doing ok and actually haven't harmed or injured anyone so all is good.
Appointment with health check nurse on Friday so hopefully might get some good advice there.

A massive well done mate. The worst part is over now although I'm it won't feel that way, coming off the patches is a good idea too.

Relax, you'll be fine. Healthier, live longer and food is gonna taste* sensational.

This.

Patches are not good. Clean break is required.
