Anxiety and quitting
I suffer from an anxiety disorder and I’m battling against my urge to smoke when I get anxious. I’m using patches which seem to make no difference to me, but also gum and quick mist. I tried hypnosis and it didn’t work because of my heightened anxiety so I went cold turkey. I’m one week clean and going on a wellness retreat to gain better coping strategies for my anxiety to help with when my anxiety makes me want to smoke. Hopefully all this will help me quit for good.
Hi there.....how are you? Relax....it will happen at the right time and moment. Don't make this hard for yourself and let it come to you. Anxiety can make things really weird and hard for someone especially when dealing with addiction like smoking. Wish you best. Know its hard but you will come through this and we all know you will. I'm having strange anxiety and depression attacks after I quit for some time. But this is exactly what we were told that life would be!
