Hi Plehdeen!  Glad to hear you are still smoke free. "Dominated by thoughts of smoking/not smoking. Dumb thoughts like life isn't worth living without smoking." Oh yes the brain has amazing ways of trying to trick you back into the habit. By now your body is free of nicotine and the battle is now with retraining the mind. There are so many things in our daily routine that just became second nature to be smoking as we did them and now we have taken that away. Mix up your daily routine, do things at a different time, walk or drive different routes. You can do this and things will get to the point where you don't even think about smoking as the norm anymore. Take things one minute, one hour, one day at a time. We can only change today as it happens as we have no way to predict what the future holds for us. Stay strong you can do this!!

Hello, 
I stopped nicotine May 25 at 1:05am. 
I have empathy for the mentally ill because I feel somewhat insane.
Dominated by thoughts of smoking/not smoking. Dumb thoughts like life isn't worth living without smoking.
I get sudden extra heavy urgent feelings of dread and despair. These attacks are excessive in their nature but shorter in duration since day 9 but still daunting. I assume related to withdrawal or my brain being rewired for nicotine.
It seems I can handle the idea of not smoking for the next hour / day, but the though of the rest of my life is in fact too much.
 
Thanks,
 
Doug
