Where is the chat room?

A little better today, but getting really depressed. Is this normal ?

Half an hour ago I was so ready to cave. I had an upsetting conversation and just wanted a smoke. I didn’t, I haven’t, but I’m feeling very vulnerable right now, even though I know a cig won’t change anything. I haven’t smoked in 10 days now, totally off nicotine and I really don’t want to put it back in my system, but I’m not feeling very calm right now.

Thank you for the upbeat messages! I’m still in the game , hanging in the background, taking a couple long walks each day to ride out the waves of emotions. The cool air is helping. The one thing I find most annoying is how slow time goes now. The days just seem to drag on forever ! What’s up with that...?

Thank you all so much ! You’re very helpful

Thank you all so very much, I am glad I joined

Thank you! Went for a very long walk in the country this morning

Thank you!

Hello, I am on my 6th day of not smoking. I have tried quitting many times in the 30 plus years I have been a smoker. The longest I went was 3 months. I really hope to make it for the rest of my life this time. My biggest fear is weight gain :(
