This was good, Phillip. Thanks for taking the time to post it. Jan, I was feeling "blah" somewhere between 20-30 days as well. You are right... it will pass!

Nice post River! I especially like the line, "If you're going through hell, just keep going." Its that simple. Makes sense to me right now. At 25 smoke free days, I'm just feeling really blah. Not wanting to smoke, and not going to smoke. No craving. Just blah. I know, I know. This too shall pass. And so it shall. Have a good one, Cheers, Jan [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/13/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 25 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 763 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $225 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 20 [B]Mins:[/B] 39 [B]Seconds:[/B] 23

"If you are going through Hell just keep going." and "Attitude is a little thing that makes a big difference." Winston Churchill Just dropping by and offering a hand to any that might want support. I know that going through the first few days is a lot. There are all kinds of things that can and do happen to the smoker who quits. Hang on, keep reading here, keep looking to your focus of being quit. It really does get better. The physical stuff will subside, the visits to the doctor will decrease (they did for me cause I tend to panic and would call at a moments notice of anything that seemed ...wrong). The panic, urges and deep deep physical, emotional and cognitive actions that can happen will lighten over time. I know that there are all kinds of thoughts, urges and the craves can be pretty gruesome; however, I have a friend from around here, her name is Rusty and she says, "Simply do not light that next cigarette.". Nothing can be simpler and it is a huge focus to maintain as one goes through hell, heck, blah and all the other weeks. No matter what, I have drawn whatever measure of success from this quit by maintaining that simple idea of never lighting the next and by knowing that I could get through hell, all I had to do was keep on going. Focus, determination and just plain gutsy attitude will help anyone who is sitting on the fence, waffling and even thinking of caving in. Push the addict down, gather your strength and move right along into a life of freedom. For me there is nothing finer. So, thanks for reading. Stay with your determination. Quitting is a journey and the only destination is freedom and extended life. (Check your quit meter, there is added life with every cigarette you do not light. Here's wishing you all a wonderful smoke free day and a fantastic new smoke free life.

Jan, I'll bet you had blah times when you smoked, too! I remember those days of feeling restless, beside myself, not knowing what to do, blah, so....I smoked. Smoking kept me from taking responsibility for my blah-ness. I didn't have to make a decision to clean or work or read or rest or do any projects. Smoking took care of that decision for me. Now that I don't smoke anymore, I still get blah days. Days when I don't feel too excited about anything. Days when I wish I could just lay in bed under the covers all day. I'm not too clear on how blah-ness relates to quitting smoking, except that we reach some days where the excitement is kind of over, and the junkie tries to get a hold and tell you lies about how you didn't feel this way before you quit smoking. So, I say, if you feel blah, do something about it. Admit it, face it, do something or don't do something. It's your blah. Own it. Thanks, Phillip! Great thread!
