Day 5 - feeling a little shaky

5 days smoke free today. The worst day for me so far. I am into the 3rd week of my Champix course and haven't really suffered any side effects yet other than a little nausea for a couple of days when I started on the 1mg pills.
I was ok this morning, but this afternoon I found myself constantly thinking about smoking for about 2 hours. Today has been my first day off work since I stopped smoking, so I'm thinking that may be a factor. I'm going to plan my next days off so that I am kept busy.
I went out for dinner with a friend tonight, but just before I left home I started crying. I bawled my eyes out for about 5 minutes. It came out of nowhere. I played it safe by ordering water instead of wine with dinner after that. I'm feeling ok now though. Reading everyones posts and comments on this website really helps. So thankyou to everyone for sharing :)

Awww.. Sorry to hear about your rough trot. It sounds to me you have a good plan set out with keeping busy/not ordering wine.
How are you feeling today, Tlee?
