Day 24 on cold turkey . Feeling little edgy . Stressed at work and feel like picking up a cigarette to get some relief . Any tips to calm down a little ?

A lunchtime brisk walk. Get your heart pumping and your lungs breathing deep.

you can do this Sekar. Remember it's the cigs that make you feel stressed so it won't help you in the long run.

Stick with it!πŸ’ͺπŸ’ͺ🚭🚭

Glad to hear it😊.

I lost count of the walks I did!!. It'll become easier to shake off that feeling as time goes by.

Well done!.xx

Glad you're feeling better. If it happens again and you can't get out of work, try deep breathing.
