Lack of Zzzzz's still an issue.

I have still not been sleeping very well. I don't think it is all down to not smoking, though (hormonal challenges of the next phase in life may be part of it). My plan is to up the exercise this week now that I can breathe easier on exertion. I felt really tired when I got home from work this evening.

For my quit to succeed, I know I have to change a few things I do. Although my life was not dull when I smoked, I seem to have acquired a new zest for life. I want to learn some new skills. My main project for the next wee while will be gardening. I want to start growing vegetables. I have never been very successful with growing things in the past, but here's hoping growing veg is easier than growing flowers.

Anyway, despite the tiredness, I am feeling very chipper. I have not smoked for over 8 days and I think it has finally sunk in that I must never take another puff. By admitting I am an addict, I think I have finally set myself free.

Hi Elaine,

I know how you feel. I have had one nights sleep out of the last 9 :mad: However, I feel like I have more energy now than I ever did when I smoked. Gosh, if I had slept I probably would be very hyper lol. All this will settle soon then we will be able to conquer the world lol.

Good luck with the veggies

I like the sound of concquering the world....

..but until then I will concentrate on the wild terrain that is my back garden.
