4 weeks off very lethargic

[Nellyquit]

Hi, everyone iv read your posts and found them so helpful I just had to say thanks never posted anything before so hear goes. I quit 4 weeks ago using champix but now I feel Very lethargic  and don't quite feel myself anymore . (I don't blame the champix  ) I think it's the demon tobacco trying to push me back to smoking , I'm not going to give in ,I know it's a tricks ? iv stopped too many times but this is a new one on me just want to stay in bed and a bit reclusive " crazy stuff "ok so I obviously don't know what this drug is capable Of "hate it " but love it too smoked over thirty years and i really don't understand what nicotine is capable off . one thing I have learned is if I take just one puff I'm back  smoking again I really can say I totally understand that after all this time (numerous attempts to stop ) like  other habits and addictions it's a case of changing your life forever and for the better that can't be bad I'm ranting and it's made me feel a little bit energetic so I'm going to get up and do something constructive feel like a nutter today 😂 love this app it's really helping me kick this habit  Thanks for reading

Good morning Nelly from 🇨🇦☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️☕️

Awesome post!!  Yes, addiction is cunning and baffling.   I was lethargic and depressed for a few months.. I couldn't believe I was so addicted to cigarettes ... I can't believe the government allows the tobacco industry to put all those chemicals (4000+) into the tobacco and sell them to us to kill us.. Somethings very wrong ..

Glad you posted your feelings and thoughts👍🏻

Best wishes xxxx

Hi Nelly, both the girls have already said  stick with us.  Yes emotions do vary day to day, so stay strong.  If you let Glolin know your exact quit date she will make sure you get your next badge. I have just raided Monkys drawer and got you your 4 week badge.   Take care. xxx

Hi Nellyquit and a big warm welcome to our quit support community and look at you, 4 weeks quit already, am soooo proud of you Nelly  

Champix is an excellent form of NRT and will be working as I speak on your nicotine receptors in your brain and things will start to get easier and easier for you as you go along your quit journey As for you feeling a bit crazy, thats just the norm of quitting smoking gal but it will pass, ermm, hopefully, cos some of our longer term members on here are still a bit ermmm, lets just say NUTTY eh Ha ha ha.

I see you have had some lovely advice and help and this is what this lovely support family is all about, helping each other get through  

Nelly, if you could be so kind as to let us know your quit date, then we can keep your Winners badge upto date and add you to the Wall of Winners too  

If you have a look to the right of your post, you will see Pinned Posts and Topics, have a nosey through them  

Take care now Nelly and hope to see ya soon
