Hey Deano, sorry to hear you are struggling a bit, as far as I can tell this quitting thing is a bit like a rollercoaster, there are flat bits but also mega ups and downs. As time goes by this does settle although it has to said that even from almost 6 months in there are highs and lows.

This will pass, most of us smoked for a very long time, so we should not expect to go back to "normal" quickly. Keep posting and do some reading, I hope you start to feel better soon.

Hi Deano want say anything about quit as I have had 2 glasses of wine and will tell you wrong LOL

50 days how good is that, someone told me that the days would be bad for the amount of years you smoked, what a crock of shi* and I believed them till got passed 41 days LOL and still have shi* days.

Hi Deano :D

Wow Well done 50 days is a great milestone to reach

The way you're feeling just now is normal you have to give your body time to heal from the abuse you gave it as a smoker

Love

Deano,

I 100% sympathise with how you were feeling when you made the first post on this thread, it hit me at day 100, i'd built myself up for the 100 day milestone, then when i got there, I just wasn't feeling great and truth was.. felt down in the dumps.

How you feel can change very rapidly while quitting though, and you will just have to make up for it when you perk up a bit (which you will!!!)

Sorry if you felt a bit down when making your 50th day post, but its short lived that down feeling, there is better times ahead, just stick at it.
