Jude if it's any consolation I'm feeling the same now for three days. I was feeling great then this just seemed to hit me. I just keep thinking tomorrows another day and I may feel better again.

So we must just keep going and I'm sure it will pass I'm 10 and a half weeks almost.

Better to be a non-smoker with an occasional desire to smoke than a smoker with a con

Jude we know it's not funny when you are feeling down. I find when I'm feeling like this it helps to come on here and have fun. So if you think I'm cruel it's not meant to be I just want everyone to laugh. If you're laughing your not smoking.:)

slightly nervous that wobbles are still happening after 3 months yikes. I am nearly at that 3 month milestone and finding that instead of thinking about smoking 88,392 times a day I am now down to about 50 times a day but when I do get a slight thought about smoking it has gone in half a second and i dont get the cravings. I do still feel quite left out when people that I know who do smoke sneak off and have one of their death sticks but again that goes quite quickly...i hope that your wobble wears off and that you find solace in the smugness that becomes of being a non smoker..

Life can be a beach, Jude. When we smoked we had down days and we consoled ourselves with a smelly fag. But that didn't improve our mood one bit. Being down sadly is part of life and that's when the thoughts of smokes come around trying to trick us into smoking cos that would somehow improve our lot. Keep ignoring the nicodemon because they are just singing a false song in your head. You know as well as anybody that a smoke will not improve things but rather make it 10x worse.

Jude, print out some of the advice posts which you like to read that boosts your resolve when you read them.

If your internets ever down in a time of need, you'll have something to help in those situations then.

Well done Jude, glad you got through it. Sharing is the best thing to do if you are having a problem, you will get many replies to encourage you on and someone else will get identification from your post to help them.

Good idea from Jase in case internet goes again, maybe print out these answers and have them by the computer. Enjoy your new day.

Hehe, I've done the same Jude.... apologise to you for having a couple or so drinks.

We are cutting down overall........ look back over the week and not each day.

How you been feeling since? Crave wise?

Bella, thought I was the one apologising?:) Thought yours was cut down now and nicely, most of the time, under firm control?
