I have been taking a few puffs here or there on an e-cig, but I don't like how they taste, so maybe they willl help me quit completely....I'm really hoping so.

yesterday was not good....I was sooo on edge, at one point my husband asked me if i was okay....Hoping today will go better. I feel okay right now. It is so hard to quit smoking....when i was a teen i had a problem with smoking pot...i did it everyday, all day, and one day just stopped cold turkey...why is this so hard then? once I quit pot, i never looked back, no desire to smoke it or anything....but cigarettes are another story....no having one makes me super irritable, and edgey....i need something to take my mind off this...any ideas?

I tried doing some crocheting, and it helps a bit, but when the kids are awake, i can't really crochet, because I want to spend time with them.....I don't want to be a smoking parent anymore, even though I have never smoked in front of my children....i just want to be able to say... I am a non smoker....that would feel so good to say....sorrry about my rambling, i'm feeling a little hypomanic right now with thoughts racing every which way in my brain......

I quit five months ago. Nicotine is one of the most addictive substances out there. Much more addictive than pot! Just get through these first few days! I know its the hardest thing ever! It DOES get easier and it feels SO GOOD to be a non smoker!
