Its hard to sleep at first Kayla but it will get easier! That maybe doesn't help right now, but just know that it does!

Kayla, I also had a hard time sleeping at first. Here is what I think happened to me. My subconscious and conscious mind were so keyed up on quiting that it is all I ever thought about. It was totally controlling. I think it even took over my sleep. So what I started doing was taking very deep breaths as I fell asleep and imagined myself as a carefree nonsmoker. I went over all the great things I was doing for myself. I went into great detail with fantasizing about scenes I could be in as a nonsmoker. By the time I got all this done I was so relaxed I started falling into very peaceful sleeping patterns again.
This is a great thing...don't let it be a stressful thing! Or at least try not to
