50days quit and still feel horrible

I'm on day 50 of no nicotine, I quit cold turkey and I still feel terrible, I have no energy, severe anxiety and have put some much weight on I am now wearing my husbands 3xl clothes, Does it get better?

It does get easier. Have you tried vaping ? I know it sounds weird but it's a mental thing between hand and mouth which if you replace it with something to suck on, you will get through it. Eating healthy and exercising are absolute key to success

Hey Raven62,
I feel similar to you and am on day 79 today.
I am finding it hard mentally and emotionally but good physically apart from headaches.
Only thing that helps me is talking through it with my partner, trying to go for a swim or a walk and taking time off to listen to music or podcasts etc.
Let's hope for the both of us that it gets easier as I really thought things would be much better by now. We have got this!

I have chosen not to vape as it is swapping an addiction for a 2nd possible addiction.

Im on day 29 after smiking for 40 years. I chose to use my vape but be sure you use NO NICOTINE juice! You don't want to introduce nicotine back into your system but it really helps me to get through those tough moments. Just to see the vapor release is like the stress just floating away. Good luck and stay strong!
