Hi Everyone,

I'm CT on Week 2, Has anyone else had those moments where you walk into the kitchen and completely forget why you walked in there? :rolleyes: lol

I have been going through that on and off the last few days. Mostly at work, I'll daze off and forget what I was doing. Ugh!!! Any helpful tips to get my head out of this fog?

I'm the same. I'm off with the fairies half the time, plus very accident prone. It will pass i'm sure. However, today I'm really enjoying more energy, everything smells so different (keep sticking my nose in the mustard pot..it smells great!) and feeling happy. But, yep, i'm still gaga and spicy

Yeah haha I've had the dazes too, I joked to my work friends I think this being a non smoker is making me go a bit divvy lol!! Think it may have been from lack of sleep though. Had a great night sleep last night though so havnt been too bad today :) x

Mid Day...

:(

My fogginess is turn into confused. I'm overloaded at work and my boss is noticing that I'm having trouble. She told me to go smoke a cigarette. They are very unsupportive.. and they are all ex smokers. They are finding it funny that I'm struggling. :mad:

That's really mean and tough. You could pretend to go along with it and go outside for a cigarette, but just use the time to get some space out of the office and clear your mind.

I had a really long quit of many years in the past , with 6 years of attempts to give up before i managed it. One of the things that messed up my quit attempts before i understood the whole thing differently (alan carr...good for me, not everyone) , was the panic that i couldn't concentrate or function. It did pass, and i did function at work just fine for many years.

Don't let your colleagues de rail you, it's too important to you for that

Thank you:o I really appreciate the kind words. I feel so off today, like I wanna cry too... I know it will pass. I'm so glad I have somewhere to come and talk. I really need it today ;)
