Help I'm struggling! 11 days nasty free, but feeling blue :(

[sxlxp]

Hi again my lovely helpers, today is 11 days cigarette free, I quit straight off and started vapeing. The first few days was brilliant and I wasn't craving a fag at all, but the past two days I'm really struggling. Not so much the craving of a smoke, but feel really down and quite tearful like I'm missing something. In some sense I feel lost. I was a heavy smoker for 20 years and this is the longest I've stayed nasty free, so I just wondered if this is normal? Has the novelty of vapeing worn off? I just don't know. Any advice is much appreciated xxx

Hi @sxlxp well you are doing good so far, 11 days is almost two weeks. Try turning the negatives into positives, think about treating yourself to a little something at the weekend and remember all of us that are with you on your journey, so you are not alone.

11 days fag-free is fantastic.

Be under no illusion, it's a real achievement.

You rock :-D

It's possibly just the many chemicals leaving your system that's making you feel out of sorts.

Stick with it if you can, tomorrow is another day. Treat yourself to a new bottle of juice of you can afford it, maybe something you haven't tried yet.

I felt a bit shitty after my first couple of weeks of switching to vaping. It affected my sleep too. It did soon pass tho. I think it's your body's way of adjusting to normality. You have to remember that it's not just nicotine that your body has been subjected to over the years, there's all the other crap that your body has become accustomed to.

Hang in there matey, it will pass.

what clint says....your body is clearing out all the shit that it's become accustomed too.....Bet you never thought you'd go this long without a fag.....That's a big achievement if you were a heavy smoker.....I was a heavy smoker for forty years....Haven't had a fag for over two months and it just gets better and better....Keep it up...

It will get better. Trust us

Chain vape, but you might start to feel a little green, swap flavour or increase nic strength for time times your missing something.

Just wanted to say keep going it will pass, I found Sundays really difficult for some reason when I first started and felt the same as you. As above have said treat yourself to a new juice and feel proud of the fact that you don't smoke anymore

Thank you so much everyone, and as Clint said (I don't know how to tag people) my sleep is really screwed up as well atm, I haven't had a proper nights sleep in over a week so being exhausted with a very energetic 5 year old doesn't help lol. I am determined not to give in though, with the money I'm saving I'm planning on investing in some new gear Saturday. I'm glad I'm not just being weak, and have somewhere to turn to find I'm not alone. Thx again darlings xxx
