One week smoke free 😴, I’m not sleeping, bloated stomach.. the smells coming from my bottom is seriously traumatising my kids.. the mood swings and the lack of any kind of mood.. so I’m hoping week two becomes easier... on the plus side, I’m extremely proud of myself 💋

Well done Charlie3306, sleeplessness is a bit of thing when quitting, likewise mood swings. It gets better but it may take sometime. Be patient and kind with yourself, it's pretty hard core for the firstmonth. You can do it. Best wishes happybear
