i quit smoking, but....
*Weird addiction*

Ok, finally, i quit smoking, its a LONG story but i decided that life is SO darn special. Basically, i haven't smoked for like a week, which is wierd, totally wierd and abnormal. I used to be a cigarette freak, sometimes i smoke 1 packet a day. I've been smoking for 3 yrs now. Blah blah, i quit. BUT i'm having serious headaches, my stomach hurts like hell, i'm always tired, sometimes i even feel like vomitting. I talked to my sister and she thinks i have cancer blink.gif , my friends think i'm dying blink.gif . And i can't stop thinking about cigarettes, lol. My dad tempts me intentionally _dry.gif , he gives me money to buy cigarettes, lol ( i take the money and keep it ), he thinks i'm still smoking laugh.gif .

I've tried almost everything to make me stop thinking about cigarettes, i've watched porn (but eww, it gets tiring), i've been on cB a lot, but i just can't stop thinking about cigarettes, lol. I seriously want to quit but hehe i kinda need help.

Does anyone know anything that can occupy me (ive even tried thinking about boys, lol but err doesn't work either).

My mom suggested jogging but i think i'm slim enough, jogging isn't really my thing. So yeah, i need help, lol.

First off, Congratulations! Hmm...ever think about going to a phycologist (sp?) or something, cuz maybe they could give you better tips. But anywho...maybe take up a sport or join a club, maybe that'd take your mind off the cigs.

Good thing you stopped.

Smoking is horrible, and gross ick.

Anyways.

Try finding things you can do with your hands? Like.. I dont know.. play an instrament? And play it a lot?

first off, you should go see a doctor about it.
i think its normal you are behaving this way, because you havent smoked for a while and your body is reacting this way because your body wants the chemicals in the ciagrette.

learn to cook. it occupies time, and you get a reward at the end, in the finished product.

Oooh Good job!
Well. My dad is quitting smoking too. He bought a patch and it seems to work.
Chew a lot of gum and try to find something interesting to do. Like afterschool, get a job or join a club or something. It should get your mind off them.
Best wishes. flowers.gif

Join groups that help you quit smoking and stuff. Maybe you should find a friend that's trying to quit smoking too, so that way you can talk to her/him about it and relate to her/him. What's your hobby? If you have one, then maybe you could do that every single time you think about smoking. Er, hope that helps.

Congratulations on giving up happy.gif

Them ill feelings are just withdrawal symptoms since your body has to get used to not getting its normal nicotine and other chemicals that it would get from smoking.

Go to your doctor and see they can give ya any tips on helping ya.

Good job on quitting. Something to be proud of. BUt these things you are going thru, this is what makes people start smoking again. You arent dying, but you are going thru some hardcore withdrawal symptoms. I just try eating lots of vitamins (fruits veggies) keep yourself busy as much as possible. Avoid sitting still. Avoid going to places with smoking sections. Try going out to dnner or something, somewhere you cant smell cigarettes and somewhere you cant get your hands on some. Just stay strong and dont give up.
