Still going strong

:pHi Everyone, Proud to say I am still a nonsmoker since Oct 30th! Hope everyone in the October quit group is still going strong! As anyone who has read my posts know I have had insomnia pretty much since I stopped smoking and it has'nt got much better-sleep 3-5 hours at the most and still have nights when I toss and turn all night. Got antidepressants from the doctor as I got so depressed with not sleeping and feeling a bit better. I think as a heavy smoker my body was so drained I slept well and now as a healthier nonsmoker my sleeping pattern will take a while to settle. Staying positive and getting loads of exercise and good food and determined to never smoke again- surprised to still have a lot of cravings but will not give in to them. Crystal x:cool:
