Feeling down
I am on day 5 of my quit journey, and am happy to say that I have finally gotten over the smell of wanting it, my housemate even sat and smoked in front of me and i wanted no of it and was proud of myself for walking away.
Byt today i feel down, yesterday i was happy and in the BEST mood, and today i am tired, headachey, muscle painy, and irritable, and finding it very hard to concentrate on work.
The way i am getting through it is by googling and knowing that it is common to go through this around day 4-8 so hopefully tomorrow will be a better day.
I have put a pl;an in place to stay at a friends house tonight, who is a non smoker, in order to deter myself while im in this mood.
Here is to hoping tomorrow is a better day. :)
Well done on walking away and making the plan to stay away tonight, you should be really proud, that takes a lot of strength. Those days where you feel crappy will pass, I know how rough they can be I too have had that experience. One day you feel great the next it's like what the?? I felt so good yesterday. Keep up the good work and stay strong!
Hi Lycccia, good for you on 5 days .... I had the same muscle pain is common...... it will all pass remember you are doing something good for yourself. Good luck.....
I know exactly how you feel! I am on day four, yesterday I felt great, free, happy!! Today I feel tired and grumpy. I am about to go out for a walk in the fresh air that will help heaps. Keep going, you will feel better tomorrow!!!
