I don't know about you guys, but I think quitting is turning me a bit.....ummm...... strange 😜 🤓🙃

Doctors this morning, blood test taken, all looking good for results next week. I'm feeling good 🤗🤗

Off to my quit smoking lady at Tescos for more patches, she says I'm doing great 👍, I'm feeling very good 😇😇

Came home, made soup...it was actually edible ( see picture) feeling smug lol 😏😏

All of a sudden, I feel as if I could rip the face off the next person I see 😈😈😈😈 No warning, no cravings, just ANGER😡😡😡 Red hot anger.

10 minutes later, I see something stupid on TV and I'm sobbing 😭 😭😭 like a baby !!!!

Step aside hormones..... quitting smoking beats you hands down 😲

Oh well, I seem to be back in Karen mode at the moment, tea, football and chocolate time 👍👍

Karen , we nearly all go through that. Thats why we are silly on here when we get chance. Welcome back Karen.😉 🍰🍫🍬🍷☕☺xx

Your soup looks good Karen😋 This quit journey is certainly a roller coaster of emotions but hang in tight and enjoy your tea, football and choc time. That's your reward for doing so well and I like it☕️🍫😉

Hi Karen,

O yer know how you feel I am having a night like that... Phil is trying to be nice ...and all I want to do is be sh**y with him..my head aches my mouth has a crappy taste I feel so on edge. . I so just want to say sod the lot of it... I am a smoker and always will be... but I have put myself to bed crying away from Phil. .. I am like a bloody 2 year old kid who has not got her own way tonight. ..

I hate being and feeling so fat... I have really bad heartburn as well...

O so sorry I have just realised I am ranting away and this is your post... sorry... hope the chocolate football helped. ..

Your soup looks good...

Signing off as a unhappy non smoker 😔😔

Don't worry Hezzie, I'm with you.

Tongue is sore, my mouth has a crappy taste too, I just want to tell everyone to p*#s off !!!!!!

Even had a FaceTime with no. 2 grandchild and much as I love ❤️ her to bits....couldn't be bothered tonight.

So, I think I might just curl up in bed, away from everyone....... or murder half my family

Decisions........ decisions

😆😆😆😆😆😆

Hi Karen I know how you feel, I actually thought that was my post lol - I'm happy:sad:soooo angry and yes for no reason: manic - just about every emotion you can think of, and then I can't understand why my family are giving me funny looks 😲😲when in a split second I return to my normal self, I just keep thinking it will all be worth it in the end and also no one has ever said take a cigarette, so I must not be that bad 😝😝

[Frostie2560 LONG TERM WINNER]

Oh I feel exactly the same some days!. Also I can never post a photo the right way up on this site either😆. Soup looks delicious, nothing like home made😍.

Hope you enjoyed the football, tea and chocolate time.xx

It's very normal Karen, I went through the whole of the seven dwarfs early on in my quit (emotions wise obviously) soup looks very nice hope you have a better day tomorrow and have enjoyed your treats 😊

[Hidden]

lol. Quitting is full of surprises but its all good !!! Way to Karen for getting through the first crazy month 💃xx

[Thistimeisforreal 8 MONTH WINNER]

You are doing great! We have to keep the people around us on their toes! If we weren't rapidly changing emotions and moods they might get complacent!

You've got this. Better days ahead🙂

[Schmicter]

I'm with you Karen, the mood swings are not like I had before quitting. And believe me I was a moody guy anyway. Now....I feel like crying sometimes just watching some TV! And if its not that... Sometimes I feel like my head is going to explode if someone does something I think is "stupid". The worst thing I am also getting fat because a handful of chocolate makes things better. But... I always feel it is all so much better than the smoking life and all that brings with it.
