Just take it day by day.

18 years ago 0 +0 / -0 25

Hi all, Yesterday (day 4) was a good day for me, but today wasn't. To make long story short, I did not have a good night sleep, woke up several times during the night. Cough up in the morning, because there was something very irritating on my throat, I kept coughing for a while. This afternoon I felt dizzy if I walk fast; therefore, I am slowing thing down a bit. Good thing is that work day is almost over. I just want to get home, relax, take a warm shower, and get ready for tomorrow. Hope everyone is doing fine. -TT

Hey TT; My sleep is still messed up a bit, but we're all different in our quits. You may only experience a nite or two of restless sleep. Or awhile longer as I am but I read over & over here that it will pass. I was very, very tired & dizzy the first week. I've read on the board that a lot of it was the physical detox that sapped my strength to a degree but I also think I put so much of my energy in "doing the quit" that it exhausted me. Which contributed to the dizzy, light-headed-ness. Either way, it did pass and was well worth waiting out. Hang in there . . . wait it out . . . IT'S WORTH IT!

Hey TT this is all the signs of quiting smoking. I am on day 14 and I still wake up in the middle of the night, when I first started I was not sleeping at all for about 10 days but it will get better. if you are on ntr or wellbutrin this can mess with your sleeping. Hey I am still coughing up some also, but you know what I FEEL SO MUCH BETTER THEN I DID. KEEP UP THE FIGHT YOUR GOING TO WIN.

TT, That's right! Relax yourself when you get home and start the day fresh. Your body is going through many changes and it will take some time. Concentrate on you and reward yourself :) Know that it is ok to cry, scream and yell! Release that stress by exercising, stretching or relaxing, You will get there! Keep Strong, Josie ______________________ The SSC Support Team.
