I use to quit every winter easy but now not so much. Since I didn't quit last winter, and since I'm trying to make my life a lot healthier through changing how I eat, and doing a lot more exercise (noticing that as soon as I started this I started smoking a lot more), I decided to quit for good.... the hard part is I'm not sure I want to.
I messed up once already today, and I'm super craving another today. I didn't think I was this addicted! I was so anxious and jittery (it looked like I had WAY too much caffeine) when I came out of DBT, but as soon as I had the first drag that just stopped. Now my stomach is hurting and it feels like my skin is crawling and I'm nauseous from anxiety. Since my quit date I've had 1 every day because of just giving in (not bad though!), with the exemption of yesterday where I didn't have any (YAY). I just feel so ******... emotionally and physically.

Congratulations on cutting back to one a day and improving your diet! That is great.
It isn't easy quitting cigarettes because of the physical addiction and the emotional dependence. Sometimes having a banana or a yogurt will cut back on the nagging inside. |

    Hi there Switch. Well done for really wanting to get yourself more healthy. Keep on trying to quit, no matter how many times you have to try to start again ~ keep doing it!! We all relapse but as long as we get back on track, things are OK. HUGS. XXXXXXXXXXXX

Okay, I'm at day 2 and I want to rip realities limbs off. I'm so irritable, and it takes too much effort to stop yelling at people. Last night I was crawling in my skin and I think my fiancé thinks I'm mad at him because I just closed off. I want to give in so much right now.

The physical issues are horrible, but I KNOW the emotional dependency is worse. Who am I without a cigarette?

aaannnndddd day two ended in disaster. I feel like I just cant do this. I get so irritable that my fiancé almost walked out for the night because he thought that I was mad at him (I wasn't at all) because I've apparently been ignoring him or biting his head off and then saying "I'm fine". I'm thinking about maybe doing NRT.
