You are in the worst of it at this time...The reason that you don't feel normal is that we have all been abnormal for so long. As time goes by it will occur to you that now it is normal not to smoke and that you are dealing with life in a more effective manner. This will be opposed to the time in your life when you needed to take 5 minutes out of every hour to suck down 4,000 chemicals and infuse your lungs with a a coating of tar.
I understand how this thing knaws at you now, but remember to use your mechanisms for distraction, deep breating and water, water and more water. You can get through this, just keep believing in yourself and there will come a time when you will not crave so. In time it will become a distant thought that will come upon you rarely. Over time you really do develop a different relationship with cigarettes...I know that may not help you in the moment, but perhaps hanging onto that idea will give you hope to overcome your current struggle...
