Nothing is wrong with you.

Quitting can be an emotional roller coaster because you are used to nicotine altering your mood, via endorphins.

It does settle down but it in the meantime recognise it for what it is, you are healing

Like Nic says - nothing is wrong with you. I'm going through the same thing at the moment...can't seem to shake the blues.

I'm putting it down to time of year (winter is always shit and the darkness messes withe my head!) and some sad times lately. Smoking won't make me feel better about things...if I start now that will just make me feel even shitter! Think about this, day 37 is a brilliant achievement we don't wanna go back to day 1. Have some chocolate and tomorrow is another day. There are people on here that have been quit for ages and they don't still feel like pants so there is light at the end of the tunnel. We just have to get there. Thanks for your support yesterday Noreen, it really helped .

Hi Noreen - just hang on in there - it honestly does get better.

This is a time to be really gentle with yourself - find any comfort that you can.

But! Cigarettes are not a comfort! They are the things that got you into this mess, so please don't make the mistake of believing that they can be part of the solution!

37 days is the start of a really good quit, so don't blow it now. You don't want to go back through that first week again, do you?

Good luck
