Fatigue - is it normal?

16 years ago 0 +0 / -0 4

Hi everyone, Thank you all for your responses and support. It's made me feel better that I am not alone going through this phase and that others got through it. That alone has given me strength. I just have to remember that it will pass and I will be myself again soon. I am taking the advice of so many of you to be good to myself and pamper - go for a walk, even a short one when I can. Thank you again everyone.

The fatigue is very normal. We punished our bodies so long with all those awful drugs, do give it some time. Pamper yourself. You WILL feel better, the mental battle is exhausting too, but it does all pass just as Iwannbefrre says it does! Your resolve gets a little stronger with each passing day, and your health improves with each passing day, and you know how fast a year goes when you look back, gone in a snap! You will get there pretty soon! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]3/5/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 337 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 8,425 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $3,555.35 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 44 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 42 [B]Seconds:[/B] 35

Hiya, Lillyput... First off, I want to say congratulations on the 34 Day Quit you've accomplished. It is hard but I know it's going to get better as the months go by and my new life without cigarettes gets more fixed in my mind. Can you write a little bit about how long you were a smoker and how you got started?? There are lots of new members on here like myself who get strength in our quits when we read of another soul who has beaten the addiction even through the hard days....

Hi! When I stopped, I felt VERY agressive, was not able to sleep well, which made me extremely tired, which made me even more agresive and so on and so on.... Have you tried music? I find that I can modify my mood and change my thoughts depeding on what I'm listening to. Me and my ipod are everywhere....

lillyput, If you're having trouble with cravings, try drinking plenty of water, chewing gum, eating mints or taking a walk. It's always a good idea to keep yourself distracted with activities that you could do without smoking. Members, do you have any other suggestions for lillyput? Sylvie, Bilingual Health Educator

Hi Jewlsy I am going thru EXACTLY what you are. I am currently on day 29. TIRED, tired, and tired. I get 8-10 hours per night and on the weekend i had 3 naps. I MADE myself go to the gym tonight. I had to, i have gained 8 pounds - grrrrr. I just start a 3 day strict starter diet. Need energy bad, so i thought i have to push myself and i mean really push myself to do stuff. I thought if i can go to the gym every second day maybe that would help. I am hoping i can keep up with it.
