Just curious as it has a lot to do with what you can expect physically/mentally/emotionally through the next week or two. Steve Star,

Welcome to the group and congratulations on taking the step to quit. That's the smoking habit... your established automatic response to a craving. But I disagree with you that it's "one of the trickiest" parts of the quit, I think it's THE trickiest. Suddenly there's a craving and it seems that the only options are smoke or don't smoke. Or deep breath and 'get on with it'. What is it you do when you're "getting on with it"? What sort of distractions, activities, responses do you have for getting on? I hope you'll post and tell us about your quit. We may have some ideas for dealing with cravings. Good to have you with us, Steve Hi Star,

distractions, activities, responses do you have for getting on?
