Really bad morning

Bump!

Having a stressful day? Is anger getting to you? Quitting smoking can cause a range of emotions. Anger is quite common while quitting. What's your experience with quitting. Is anger something you've had to deal with? Please share your experience and/or if you have any coping tips.

Hang in there "Mamma" most of us know what you're feeling and going through at this point is very normal.

I was moody and very touchy in the beginning of quits in the past. All of this will get better.

You are doing very well, make sure you reward yourself and give yourself more alone time (make it about YOU and your quit) for the earlier time in your quit. Drink lots of cold water and deep breathe as much as possible.

Keep reading and posting at SSC.

MammaD, when I first quit I remember I wanted to smack alot of people since everybody was bothering me. Everything somebody did was wrong. I was upset at everybody. So you know what I did, I hid. So many people I knew smoked, and I think I was just upset that they were still smoking and I wasnt. So I told them all I still loved them, but I couldn't hang out with them for a while. Unless we were in a smoke free place. But you know what? After a week or so the nicotine was out of my body, and I was doing better. People didn't upset me as much. And then I felt like I was back to normal.

Are you rewarding yourself? Have you found a new hobby or something to keep you occupied? Now is the time to find new things to do! I figure I smoked 2 packs a day, at 5 minutes a day. That was like 3 hours of time I got back! Just remember that you are 5 days smoke free. You're approaching one week. The nicodemon is going to try to draw you back. Just say N.O.P.E. and tell the nicodemon that you control your life now! You are doing great!

Early in my quit, I spent lots of time on the computer. I also read quitting material over and over. I sometimes had to go get in bed and just shut out the world for an hour or two. That may seem extreme, but I had tried to quit so many times I was determined to make my quit more important than anything for the first couple of weeks. I am glad I did. It does and will get better. You will start noticing the many more little benefits like enjoying your coffee. Start writing them done and refer to those plusses whenever you need to. Most important Keep the Quit!!

Hi MamaD

i can assure you, that although it may not seem like it now, the cravings do taper off.

I found one of the best strategies was distracting myself, eg, go take a bath or maybe treat myself to a new novel.

Your body is starting to heal, and you will soon be through hell week, so keep on going. WE are here for you

Hi Mamma D,

By far, your first smoke-free week is the most difficult. Our Support Group members call the first week of quitting “hell week” because that’s when withdrawal symptoms are their strongest.

As a smoker, you’ve spent a large part of your waking hours feeding your body nicotine, so when you stop the feeding, your body craves what it misses. During your first smoke-free week your withdrawal symptoms (and cravings) may, at times, seem almost unbearable.

However it’s extremely important for you to realize that these symptoms do, and will, taper off.

Consult milestone 4 to learn some great coping mechanisms for your symptoms.

Stay strong!

very intense this morning. I am full of anger and want to strangle somebody..anybody..lol. Has anyone else felt like this. I t seems like everything is pissing me off. So far I have managed to keep to myself and stay here on computer. I enjoyed my coffee without smoking which surprised me. Thought giving the morning cigs up would be more difficult. When I'm alone relaxing seems to be more of a problem right now. All I think about is not smoking...even my dreams have something related to smoking. I know it will pass but right now it's making me crazy. Need some help
