Den2 Both the headaches and spaced out feeling are normal parts of withdrawals. They are temporary and they pass. For the headaches, try staying away from caffeine and relazation techniques to relieve tension. As for that spaced out feeling, there isn't much you can do except take it slow and easy the next couple of days. The spaced out feeling is most likely due to your body's withdrawal from carbon monoxide. If you've experienced a slip, make sure you take the time to examine it, learn from it and keep going. What alternative did you have in place to keep you from reaching for that cigarette? How will you combat this in the future? Danielle _______________________ The SSC Support Team

Congrats on trying again Den. Heck that's my husband's name and this is weird but I will send this anyways. I'm glad you didn't give up on yourself and your quit. You deserve to live long and happY!! smoke free that is. Just take it one day at a time. Dont look too far ahead in the future as a non smoker. Give it some time to sink in and so you can adjust your lifestyle and enjoy the new found freedom.
