Hiya Nmp and welcome to quit support :)

Congratulations on 7 days quit, a great achievement so well done :)

Sorry to hear you're struggling but as Griffy said it will pass :)

Dig deep and hang on in there coz you CAN do this :)

Might I ask if you are using any NRT or going cold turkey as it will better enable us to help you :)

You are doing brilliant :) x

Hi Nmp1970, First of all welcome to our lovely friendly community. 7 days is a brilliant start. You say its not getting easier, do you mean you still get cravings. Are you using any form of nicotine replacement.

It takes your body and brain some time to adjust to being without nicotine, especially if you have smoked for a long time.

Have a look at the hints and tips , and the symptoms of recovery in the topics section on the right of this page.

I have awarded your 1 week winners badge and will add your name to our wall of winners.

Please just ask if you need more help. :) :)

I am right there with you, today is 6 for me and it has not been a good day. I feel like I'm living for the day I don't want one.
