Is everything going to wind me up today! I'm a boiling point! I thought this was going to get easier not harder. Day 4... Another day I can't wait to see the back of!!
EDIT - It only takes the smallest thing to annoy me, almost enough to explode! Like writing this sentence, I can't spell tiniest so I wrote smallest instead. You know tiny-est. who the heck made that word?? Is it even a word! AAAAAAAAARRRRRRR DAMMIITTTTTTTT!!! Grrrrr
and breathe.....

Wow, thanks for your quick replies of encouragement. I thought I was coping reasonably well. But today is seriously like hell on earth. Really need to dig deep today. I will not give in, don't worry.
My mini anger attacks have now seemed to have passed. Its good to just rant a load of rubbish on here, it seems to have helped a lot. and of course all of the encouragement.
It WILL get better mate, although maybe not in four days However, grit your teeth and get through what they call 'hell week' and things will start to improve.
Don't let it beat you now. Because then you'd have to start all over again. And you don't want to go through this again, do you?
Max, i'm glad you are doing well, its good you are always here to offer support to anyone who needs it. even words of encouragement and greatly received
Thank you Gemma, holidng out til lunch time. go for a walk, clear my head, chill out. Its good to hear from someone who knows the feeling but even better to hear that it doesnt last forever. Its the weekend that im worried about, weekend = free time = more time to think about you know what. at least when im at work i'm (supposed to be) busy.
Helsbelles, I'm so looking forward to looking back and thinking I'm so glad I didnt let it get the better of me, it will be the best feeling in the world.
I have gone cold turkey and now on day 19...First 5 days were hell on earth for me...so please keep this in mind that you are nearly there and it will ease. Have you read Allen Carr it really helped me along the way..also shouting at the top of my head and screaming helped.
Re your weekend go do some sport as you get a happy hormone released when you exercise and this really helps. My energy levels went through the roof at around day 4/5 and the feeling from putting 150% into a workout was fantastic. Then you get a feeling of calm....hopefully.
p.s I can't spell either and just had to look up how you spell released.
