Congratulations!!!   Expect it to be hard and Take it 5 minutes at a time!!  I say expect it because if you don't....yeah, that's not good.  I am on day 6 cold turkey and am doing much better now.  Do whatever it takes to get through and by maybe day 4, probably day 5, you will be feeling much better!  when withdrawel is over it makes a big difference!  Be strong - get through it!

Welcome - you've made a great decision. I'm on Day 217 after my cold turkey quit and I smoked for 31 years. I began to feel better almost at once but got depressed due to the nicotine withdrawl. I kept with it and I'm very glad I did. Stop for one day at a time and watch the days add up. Let us know how you're doing - we will help if we can.

Best wishes to you!!!!!
