Day 8 and going Insain!!

I have spent most of my day sitting here reading alot of your stories and its a wonderfull thing to know im not alone. I just can't pull myself together today. My answer isn't going to be to smoke but I sure didn't know It was going to be such an emotional roller coaster for me. The angry outburst. The uncontrolable crying ect. is really trying my patients. Im just glad I found this site and all of you here.

Day 8 and going Insain!!

Lady, Sunshine and Healer Thanks so much. I can't thank each of you enough for your kind words. As I sit here with the tears flowing and my hubby snoring ( who doesn't have a clue but tries to understand). Im going to bed for the night to turn off my brain. Thanks again for everything. Alley

I'm Change

Hey Joe, Im so glad you asked this question. I was feeling the exact same thing. My hubby was commenting to me today that my fuse has gotten to be about a millameter long. He has been so good and just grins and bears it but he knows thats not the normal me. I'm at day 11 so I hope that it will get better soon but I deal me being snappy at least once a day. Thanks everyone for giving us hope that it does get better with time.

Day 8 and going Insain!!

Hi, I smoked for 20 years and 8 days ago I decided to go cold turkey and stop smoking. The first 3 days about killed me or so it seemed. Since then it seems to be getting easier but today is a hard day for me. Not enough to do maybe. I need some idea's on what to do on these days when Im not at work and don't have alot to do. I have a 18 month old little girl thats napping so im stuck in the house for now.

Wow I feel your pain... You can do it... That for me also is HUGE.. Im so proud of myself every time I drive past the gas station instead of stopping and you should be proud of yourself also.

Just some thoughts....

paranoid, I'm wishing I would couph up more of that junk. I cough up some each morning also but I feel better after I have done so. Im still a little early in my quit and im still feeling a little tightness in my chest. I don't think its a bad thing to be getting rid of that junk.
