Aaaaawww Rosie - I know exactly how you feel. Those first few days can be really tough. I know I wouldn't want to do them again - that's something that has stopped by starting smoking again - I don't want to have to go through those first few days!

You have to be patient with yourself - I don't know how many years you have been smoking but you can't expect your body and brain to suddenly break a habit of many years without it being a bit tough.

But you can get through this - you have to for the sake of your grandsons. Give it time and your brain will re-educate itself . As for the toilet issue - I was better after about 10 days

Stick with it - read lots and post on here often

Hi Rosie,

It is so so normal for the first few days but as you will hear often it will get better. These physical symptoms don't magically disappear after the 72 hours but most are gone by then.

Hi Rosie, congratulations on 3 days as a non smoker! that is fantastic! The first few days are the worst, but you are almost half way through your first week and these feelings will begin to subside, feeling down is very common and it takes time to adjust to your new life but you will get there and it wont just be a new life it will also be much better and healthier!,

keep going and take care, x

Hi Rosie and welcome.

Well done on your decision to stop - as the others have said the first few days are the worst but it does get better honestly, I'm on day 27 and still have sweats and not sleepin well but things are getting better, took me days and days to go to the loo, though I was going to explode :eek:

so hang in there it all gets easier xx
