Quitting Nicotine can be a very trying time.

All the things that you stuffed down with sickorettes comes boiling to the surface.

You might feel that you are losing your sanity.

Tears For Fears - Shout (Official Music Video) - YouTube 

As the song says, let it all out.

Find a place that you can just let everything out and get rid of it.

You have bottled things up for years and these things really need to go for you to succeed in your quit.

You very well could experience the full range of emotions from sadness to anger to overflowing joy.

I can only say that every day that you put behind you is a cause for celebration.

Celebrate each victory in your journey.

About the Author
I am a male that underwent coronary artery bypass X3 (triple) on 10/22/13 at the age of 55. I was living on about 20-30% of one coronary artery and my left heart output was only 20% to 25%. I spent a week in the hospital after surgery and went home. Then had to go back a day later for another week because I had pneumonia. Finally a few days because of a slight arythmia. All told it has been about 2 1/2 weeks. I am past the cravings by now and only have the urges to contend with. I really don't suggest that anyone quits smoking using this technique though. I'll have to carry the scars from that day for the rest of my life. The large one down the center of my chest, and the ones from several "silent" infarctions. I came that close to the next world. Never again will I subject my body to that (at one point in my life I was smoking 5 packs of cigarillos a day). I now have to say N.O.P.E. (Not One Puff Ever) every day of my life.
