Just not been feeling great since Sunday. I've had the sleepless/wrestless nights, the dreams, the wind (:o) and I was expecting all of those.........but since Sunday, I've been feeling weepy, angry, jumpy, and yesterday.......I couldn't do a thing right at work. Everything I did went t**s up and I felt like a right balloon.
Hubby, who has never smoked, is being very supportive, but even he has noticed a change in me this week. Please tell me this will go away, I'm starting to feel I'm on the slippery slope downwards. I DO NOT WANT TO SMOKE AGAIN, but I do need to know this will pass.
Thanks for listening guys, Love J. x x x:confused:

Hang on! It does pass. What week are you on now?? xx
Ahh, I see its week three! Hang on there! It definately does pass! There is much around on the sites re the 3s. The tales from the quit has a good article on it too. Most of us struggled at this time but keep on pushing through and it passes. Honestly! If it didn't then I for one would not be posting now as I suffered it. xx
It will pass hunnie honest. A lot of people fine this time a bit of a struggle. But Im sure it will soon pass and you will feel so proud you seen it through. Go easy on yourself for a day or so and only do the things you need and want to do. Dont forget to give yourself a nice treat your doing FAB.xxxxxx
Please stay strong, dont be like me.....I felt exactly the same as you and on Day 26 of my quit I gave in and smoked - and within days I was back on 30 a day - two weeks later and I feel like shite, breathing bad and coughing again, so I am back on Day 1 - please try and resist that awful temptation, I am so angry with myself and the fags done absolutely nothing for me, just made me feel ill again.
what is it with the 3 week mark... this was the hardest for me i struggled so much i thought i was losing my mind at one point i totally changed but all i can tell you is i promise although it doesnt seem like it it will pass within a week or so... tell your OH this so he knows its nothing personal.... stick with it i know that this is the time when your be wanting to give in.. but dont it will get better and if you want a rant then we are all here to listen xx
it will pass, it really will. you might not think so but it does get better. having a cigarette will not take this feeling away, its your mind tricking you into thinking a ciggie will make you better.
I had a damn awful week 3, i was so tired from arguing with myself cos I wasnt going to have a fag but then the only thing to make me feel better was to have one. i was a snappy old cow! when I got to the end of week 3 I had a treat (seem to be treating myself all the time!!) and sure enough I got through it and feel fine now, although a little chubbier than before as my treat was kfc, mcd's, choccies etc etc but Im embracing my new curves and have restarted weight watchers.
hang in there and you will get through it. when you feel horrid post on here
Hi J, yeah like everyone has said b4, its not gonna last, dont worry,,,, It will get better I promise.... Had a few bad times myself but celebrating day 40 today and really pleased I stuck with it....... Still probably have some testing times ahead, but getting stronger like I know u will Kaz
Thanks for the replies everyone.............I do feel better tonight, hope it continues. No intentions of giving in to the Nico demons. THIS IS MY FINAL QUIT. Thanks for your support, this forum really is FAB. Love J. x x x
