just to let u all know am having a better day than yesterday i feel i am dipping in and out of depression and not just because of the quitting i have suffered depression in the past and know only to well how it feels.

i have smoke clinic on thursday gonna speak with them about it but i do feel this is more than just quitting, i am getting excessively upset at the thought of returning to work as my maternity ends in 7 weeks and i am having alot of dark thoughts like before. i know the quitting maybe emphasizing the feelings but i think i should speak to a doctor with regards to it. my baby is only seven months and i am still feeding her myself so dont know if it could be post natal as i didnt suffer any teary days after she was born until now

Hi Boo,

Glad to hear you are having a better day quit wise today.

I too suffer from depression so know only too well how it is :rolleyes: It is definately worth talking to the clinic & more so your GP. Sometimes just talking things through with someone can help I have found. I guess you HAVE to go back to work? Sadly too many parents have to return to work these days when they would rather not. Try not to let the thought of your return cloud your last remaining weeks with your baby ;)

Hugs, Gaynor xx

Couldn't agree more with that. Hope you don't have to wait too long for an appointment. I am sure your advisor at the smoking clinic will be very pleased with you :D

Have a great day today ;)
