Just wanted to say thank you. Im going through a lot these days and today I was crying for a while. I wanted nothing other than a cigarette ( I will be a non smoker for a month on Sunday) well reading and posting on this site helped me through the cravings and now they have passed, so thank you!
Par for the course! Knowing to come here is an important tool in your box of them Use it as often as needed. Glad it helps!
Congrats on (almost) a MONTH!
Crying is okay. It won’t HURT you. Getting used to feeling our feelings is NOT easy. Congratulations on what will be your FIRST month, may there be many more.

Posts like this keep me hanging around a little bit longer. I'm so glad you kept your quit!

A Month is a Great Accomplishment CONGRATULATIONS
Way to go Julie!!
Julie and I am so glad for YOU living NICOTINE FREE - Yahoooooooooo - GOOD JOB
You are doing fantastic! Just keep doing what you’re doing which is getting through it and it only last so long so use your toolbox when you’re in the craving and for me that meant talking back to it. But everyone does what works for them. Stay in today and keep coming back to this site every day. It is the real key to succeeding because of the people that are behind the site. One day at a time, one step forward at a time leads to success.
Girl, I cry for no reason all the time, and I haven't smoked in eight years! You're doing great...I'm so pleased for you that you made it through the crave. Way to go!!!

Fyi Tears can be healing...
I’m probably just a few days ahead of you. My quit date is 11/5/20. It’s still not easy, especially mornings. This site also helps me a lot and my Werthers hard candy. I haven’t had my cry yet but have been emotional. I don’t ever want to go through this again so I can’t give up the days I’ve accumulated. You hold on too. One of these days, we will feel normal in our own skin.
On completing month !
I did cry while quitting... I remember those bad days !
Now so good... seven years plus smoke free.
You will reach too ! happy quitting journey
How are you doing this morning? You are doing super fantastic with your awesome quit journey it's going to take time to relearn life without the smokes BUT it's worth every bit of the cravings and moodswings and lack of sleep once you get through the roller coaster ride and you are doing it, deep breaths and keep moving forward stacking up those precious DOF ~ Days Of Freedom so each evening you can say YAY for another Day WON......
You're doing great. Many of us experienced crying for no apparent reason. Just let it out--it will pass. One month is a wonderful milestone to celebrate. Plan something special for yourself; you deserve it.
