Ohhhh.
First proper stomach cramps are hitting.
Officially in nicotine withdrawal.
It hurts.
However, it's late and I will sleep soon.
Also, I have good pain relief available to me.
So I'm going to take some ibuprofen and paracetamol.
I don't remember the last time I felt so determined to do something. Long may it continue.
We’re with you Stuey!
Have you tried Chantix? It allowed E-Man to quit after years of dependence when nothing else worked with no withdrawal.
Everyone has their own type of addiction and there are many different strategies to break them. You have to know yourself. Some people find "the hard way" easiest, because they want to regain control over their own physiology from the smoking. Or because they're just stubborn SOBs.
