Hi Bobbi I went through a stage where I felt I was in a daze. Kind of like I was in a fog which is also part of withdrawals. It will pass and soon you'll start feeling more like yourself, I am also using the patch and I don't know if that had anything to do with the daze. Remember you've given up something that has been a part of your life for some time and it's almost like grieving. It will get better and start doing things for yourself that will make you feel better go shopping (my favorite) get your nails done anything to put a smile on your face. Plan a vacation with your husband as a way to celebrate your freedom from nicotine and it's something positive to look forward to!!! Your doing great keep up the quit!!!

Sorry about that, your message didn't sink in. Sounds like you're going thru the blah stage. I had that too, is it ever gonna get better stage? Yes it does! And very soon! Take a few large deep breaths,( And enjoy all that oxygen) It will get better, I promise. Just keep that door closed (the one where cigarettes are) and don't ever go back! Hope this helps!

Hey fellow March Mellows, Well it has been alittle over a week now , doing pretty good the patches are sure helping. Do any of you have any suggestions on this.... I feel not myself, not angry at all but I just don;t laugh or joke around much anymore? feel like I am a bore to all, even my husband, at imes I feel like he may want someone else who is more fun like I used to be, I talked to him last night and he said he will go through what ever it takes with me, is so proud of me, and I will get all my feelings back in time, he quit 37 years ago, said he much reather go through this with me then for me to be a smoker! I just want the old me back but as a non smoker!!!!!! and I will never become a smoker again, NEVER! I have no problem with the junkie thinkin that if I smoked again I would be the old me, DON'T want that at all just hard to get me back as a non smoker! there are a few times when I think my husbands life has not changed at all still on his merry way, has a glass of wine here and there, which I can't as that would be a big trigger! and a weight gain, a no no,I keep telling my brain that you are not going to rule me, I will be happy and I am so proud that I am not smoking! well any suggestions would be much appreciated. Thanks to you all, this is such a great group!!!!!!! Many prayers and hugs sent to you all!!!!!
