When does it get easier?
Escapist, I feel ya. I am 59 days free of cigarettes but 5 weeks in I had to buy a disposable e cig. (blu)$10.99 I take a few puffs here in there mostly with my morning coffee. I still have it 3 weeks later, that tells you how much I puff on it. It really helped with the cravings, I was afraid I was going to pick up a real cigarette.. I could not believe how bad the cravings were, I was even dreaming about smoking and I was not a heavy smoker!...lol... For me the disposable e cig. helped...Hope it gets better for you hang in there!... I just keep thinking about what a pain it was to smoke and my health.
The cravings will go away soon. The desire, not so soon for me. It has been 6 mos for me and I still want a cigarette. I don't crave it, I just miss it and want it. much the same as alcohol, I know I have a choice to smoke or not, I choose not. My choice, not my addiction's choice. That makes it a lot easier for me to deal. That and the fact that God has worked miracles in my life. Amen.

The first two weeks were hardcore for me...then markedly better after that. Almost 8 months and I only get fleeting thoughts now.
Three days is AWESOME escapist. Hang in...you can beat this. You can.
I know it's brutal, but you are doing it!!! The intensity doesn't stay this high...
