Well, you wouldn't believe, really you wouldn't.

I still haven't smoked, that's the best thing that happened today.

72 hours down and counting.

Brilliant. Have spared a thought for you today Paul. For me it started getting a little easier after day 3. There has been crap bits but the lows have been not so low and the highs a bit higher. So keep at it.

Well done, and keep it up.

If you can do a week, you can quit. It only gets easier from that point.

I had the "empty" feeling you described in your other thread. According to Allen Carr, this is the only physical symptom of nicotine withdrawal, and is perfectly normal.

Exercise and general exertion is so much more pleasant even after a week of not smoking.

Hi Tracey, well done on quitting. You'll find a lot of friendly people here and you can rant at us if things are tough. Read lots of posts and they will help you stick to your guns.

Thanks Una for your reply, really appreciated- monster has quietened slightly but just keep telling myself it will get better. Reading everyone else's stories has helped tremendously. Feeling happier now:)
