Well you have ticked off one challenge not being tempted. The other things you are feeling and is quite normal. Dizzyness and thinking of smoking is quite normal. It does pass. I cant say when as everyone is different.

Huge welcome to our community Hariharan95 and congratulations on 9 days smoke free, well done!

The dizziness and thinking of smoking is perfectly normal - make sure that you are keeping hydrated and your sugar levels stable by drinking fruit drinks as when we stop our sugar levels to drop for a time and cause the dizziness, but if getting worse or not improving, visit your doctor just for piece of mind. Are you doing it cold turkey, if so, you are now in the thick of the mental battle as your body and mind is working hard to rewire, repair and recover which is a gradual process.
