Congartulations, I am on day 18 too and maybe it's something to do with day 17 but I felt awful yesterday too!!Weepy and ready to bite anybody's head off if they so much as looked at me! Feeling a bit better today though and have thrown myself wholeheartedly into the vacuuming!!!
Distraction therapy I think.... but it seems to be working.
Hi Windy
I'm sorry day 18 is a bad one for you but feeling as you do is normal and it will pass just do qhatever you have to just to get through it
take it hour by hour if you have to you've already done almost 3 weeks smoke free so be very proud of yourself
Love and a Hug

I hope the day gets easier for you, Windylindy. You are doing really well.
Hope you are feeling better now that the day has progressed a bit. We are a great lot you know when you think about what we are all doing.

Windy,
DO NOT PANIC
I REPEAT
DO NOT PANIC
Speaking personally this was the stage that I was all over the shop. Crying. Miserable. Depressed. Inconsolable. Reclusive. I thought it was never going to end. It did around Day 21 and it's all downhill (or should it be uphill?) from there.
Hang in there.
feeling better now

Hahaha, a bit or a lot of both I found week 2 the toughest, things began to ease up again crave wise from that point and it did feel like I lived on a roller coaster for a while but you begin to accept that there are some down days but you know there will be more and more up days.
It is like mountain climbing, only now your not smoking, your more able to cope with the climb Some steep parts, some level parts even some parts where you you slide down without a thought or a care in the world.
Read ahead and see how others are coping and finding things in all areas in front of you. It helps to know what to plan for and to keep ahead of the game a little. It's your quit, your the boss.
All the best to you
Hi Win, glad you are feeling better and a great lesson today that you can go from feeling so low so being so proud of yourself for getting through it.
There are loads of up and downs along the way and I wish you only ups....just rmember no matter how bad a day gets you feel great to get through it and you NEVER have to do that day again...
It does get better....and that I the first time I have typed that knew it to be true.
Stay strong my lovely....xx

Lin, It is your addiction telling you tomorrow will be hard
Tomorrow will be easy...just think how proud your Mum will be of your quit...you are doing the one thing she wanted for you above all else...your quit will give you a huge big hug from your Mum tomorrow...
Know what you mean about browsing/posting, I was nervous at first. But its a good bunch here and there is always someone around for a chat, laugh, cry etc etc.
Big hug for tomorrow my love...think happy thoughts and shout up if you need us...
