I have not smoked for a few days, and I might want to say; "This is not as hard as I thought it was going to be." I am taking Wellbutrin XL, and the cravings have been nil-to-none. My only problem is the drastic mood swings that occur. The swings are not indicative with Wellbutrin, but I am not happy with them. They are not violent in nature, there is no feelings to cause harm to myself or anyone else, but they can be drastic. I will be laughing one minute, and the next, I will be pissy. I am just curious if this is caused by the withdraws and the feelings will lapse soon enough. The have began to not come as often as they did in the begining. Any help would be greatly approciated.

1. 19 Days and counting for the rest of my life.
2. On a bad day maybe 15 seconds for the worst craving, and the cravings come 1-2 times a day that is on a really bad day.
3. Hardly ever, maybe 1 every 2-3 days.
4. Think of all the other people in this world who don't have the courage to even take a step in your shoes to quit. Be proud of who you are and where you are going.

yesterday had to be the worst day of my life. From my violent mood swings, to delerium-induced laughter, it was a day nightmares are made of. i even told my wife I wanted a divorce (though that is not what I seek). Good thing I have a kick-ass wife, she rocks. I also got a pimple in my ear (if you never had one imagine searing pain going from your eardrum through your chin into your temple). I just kept saying I need to go to sleep and this madness will be over. When I went to sleep, my 1 and 1/2 year old son woke me, bless his little black heart. :) I just love him sooo much. When I finally made it to bed it was heavenly, until my wife rolled on my chest. Ohhh, wrong move, and I went off again (good thing she slept through it). The whole day my withdrawls were at an all-time high of around a 10-11 on the scale here. It was hell. My weak little mind kept telling my soul to just go smoke one, you desirve it. :mad: Sometimes I hate that thing. So I finally went to sleep, and when I woke up it was all gone. I was Funk again. I was this happy-go-lucky person. Yesterday was the worst day of my quit and I made it. I MADE IT! Hell yeah, that is what I am talking about. I am an ex-smoke. Never again will I smoke and I fully realize that now. Never again will one thing have such a hold on my life it will make me blind. Thank you all for what you do here, you people rock. Thanks for letting me vent: hopefull this will help someone.
