it's hell now and I have been crying for hours. I think I'm finished with my boyfriend - again! - and I have never felt so low, for the 1st time since I quit 11 days ago I feel like smoking! I won't but feel like a failure for even wanting it :mad:

Don't even think you're a failure for thinking about smoking. I think about it but we don't act on it!

Really sorry to hear about your boyfriend. Sounds stupid but a calming herbal tea some crying and some sleep might be of help for now.

Keep strong for a few more hours and you'll be starting day 12 and then it's so close to week 3 forum and I'm looking forward to see you there! :)

Hey, sorry to hear about yr b'friend problems, but it's certainly not a failure of any sort for even wanting to smoke given how your feeling. I think it's totally normal in this situation to want to fall back on that particular 'unwanted comfort blanket'. Go easy on yourself...... finding new ways to cope through stressful/emotional times aren't easy.

All the best

woke up feeling even more depressed than last night. It's really the end with my boyfriend and I couldn't face going to work - we work together! - I feel like my life is a mess ... at least I'm not smoking!
