Beckylynn I just now saw this post I am so sorry for what you have been thru, when you are ready to quit again we will all be here reaching a hand out to you....... I'm on antidepressants and I imagine that you will be too, I truly believe that cymbalta and my mood stabilizers played a big part in helping me get this quit. ((((((( hugs to you )))))))

Beckylynn,

I really had a hard time to come up with a response. My heart goes out to you. I've never been in the same situation as you, and don't know how to relate. I can tell you that I'm sending all the positive energy I can muster your way and hope that everything gets better for you

beckylynn,

Please do not have any doubts about quitting cold turkey.

Discarding all the paraphernalia that can be associated with recovery from nicotine addiction is very liberating and gives one the sense of taking back control from the outset; it is good for the soul.

It can be difficult early on but the renaissance that comes with banishing enslavement instantly is a revelation which forms the cornerstone for a quit of ease, a quit of positivity and peace and a lasting quit of happiness and satisfaction.

Whatever happened recently is in the past, cast aside your props and know that you can do this the cold turkey way.

I wish you well,

Good Luck

Thank you all soooo much for your thoughts and prayers.

I am seeing a psycologist on Friday. I hope that I can get back to normal soon.

Just to let you all know it did not take long for the smoking to start showing signs in my system.

My sinuses started acting up the next day. My chest feels horrible and the cough came back in about 3 days.

I feel terrible. I am already out of breath when I walk up stairs. I am not smoking as much as I used to but it sure feels bad.

I reset my quit date to the 17th. I can't take much more of this physical effects of smoking. I feel like an old old woman right now physically. I keep remembering how good I was feeling after my quit. I went 62 days. This time it will be for good. And I am going to do it cold turkey. It felt too good to be smoke free for me not to quit again.

I will stay close and again thanks to all of you. You have become my family and I will always keep you close to me.

Love to all!

Beckylynn
