TAZ HERE!

[teko]

Day 13, in a couple hrs it will be 14 days with no nicotine. I say no nicotine cause I went cold turkey. Anxiety has set in, much like I expected. I started taking a low dose of buspar. It is a major help for the anxiety. I had it sitting around the house. In the meantime, I am getting a docs aptment to go get more!!!! lol
I had forgotten how you cannot sleep, someone said to take Vit B12. That makes sense, I will get some.  I also forgot about the constipation!  That has straightened out since I started the anxiety pills too.
I have washed my car, my clothes, curtains, bedspreads etc! Even the dogs! Yep even the dogs smelled like a dirty ashtray!  lol

I am not getting any craves that I cannot manage and really not that many craves period. The only difference this time as opposed to the last time, Im taking God on this journey and have told him this time if I fail, its his fault!!!  

OH, the heartburn is killing me!  I dont remember that one!

TAZ??

What is TAZ, Teko?  A nickname?

How are you doing today? :)

I'm glad the Buspar is working for you.  That stuff is very mild...I forgot about Buspar.  I've been taking B-12 for over a month and it's helped tremendously with my sleep as well as keeping me a little calmer than usual.  It's best to get the kind you take sublingually as the stomach has a hard time absorbing it.  Just pop it under your tongue.  

If you've never dealt with heartburn before, it might be the Buspar, although such strange things happen when we quit smoking don't they!   Tagamet/Cimetidine works very well for heartburn.  Be careful of it though.  You don't want it interfering with your vitamins or any other meds you may be taking.  

I've decided to ask God for help this time as well.  Just relying on myself, this forum and friends just hasn't been enough, apparently :(

Congrats to you on 2wks!  I have faith that this quit will be your last :)

If you got the moxy, then paint the walls! I remember how nasty they were after I stopped smoking indoors : )

I hope the Buspar continues helping you and teko, I'm glad you decided to look to your higher power for help ; ) Is it Tums that has calcium?

Congrats on 2 weeks!
