OH, I thought it was going to get easier, today was a real bad day, I really wanted a smoke, I mean really wanted one, but got by without. When will this headache go away? And today I was sick to my stomach is this a withdrawal symptoon too? You know just sitting here and reading and typing really helps, too bad I have to work and can't just sit here on web site all day. BJ

But I am doing good, hubby keeps worring about me with this stupid headache but with the help of new friends and old ones and the man upstairs I know I will make it. Thanks for your support.

Hi bobjo, yes it does get better but you have to be patient. I dont know how long you smoked for but you have to remember that if you smoked for quite a while the withdrawal and the memories of smoking will be with you for a while.

Hang in there! It gets a lot easier as time goes on. Just know that what you are doing is probably the single most significant and important thing you can do to improve your life and the life of those around you. Quitting smoking isnt a walk in the park. But you CAN DO IT!!
