Day 5 - Stress in work, thoughts about nicotine

By Dejvis93 in General

I must say, today is very difficult. As yesterday seemed easier. But it would be kind of stupid to fail again, so I dont have much a choice. I am trying to focus on all those positives, that I wake up with energy and motivation, my brain is functioning better. So lets keep going.

 

Some chocolate and food helped me today to go through. Mood is not the best, but closing 5 days in around 4 hours and that gives me a good prospect.

    You are doing really great!  I know it's so hard in the beginning but hang in there, I promise it will get easier, much easier as the time goes on.  The first week is hell for sure, that's why they call it hell week.  No, definitely don't give up because you will only go through the withdrawals again.  Just keep doing what you are doing.  Drink lots of water and keep busy, which you are doing.  You got this!!😄👍

    You are doing great and what you are experiencing is normal.  After the first few days, your emotions do go on a rollercoaster.  Some days are better than others.  But, do stick with it.  Things do get better the deeper you get in your quit.  Keep up the great work.

    Don't worry @Dejvis93, everything you're experiencing is normal. Quitting is like a roller coaster for anyone. Some days you're up the the next you're down again. It just is part of the quitting territory. It WILL smooth out with more time quit. Stay focussed on the positives you're seeing. Soon there'll be more up days than down days.

    (I didn't even read Johnny 5's post until after i posted; great minds think alike 😁 Just goes to show we all go through similar things as we quit!)

    Rock on brother!
