Day One over

Well, I made it through the first day sans smokes. It wasn’t nearly as bad as I remembered it being the other times I have quit. That isn’t to say that it was pleasant, far from it. For the most part, the patch sheltered me from the serious physical cravings, so I just had to deal with the mental addiction. At work, where I am on the tenth floor, things went smoothly. I had a headache for a good chunk of the afternoon, and I pushed through the cravings as they presented themselves. When I went home, things got a little rougher, mainly because going out back for a cigarette is such a regualr part of my routine. Day two has been a little worse so far, and I am hoping to stay busy.
