Depressed feeling

I am really getting tired of the on and off feeling like I want to cry!

Any suggestions? 

Mid this normal?

It is VERY NORMAL...keep in mind that you are missing the dopamine and also that I seriously doubt your life or anyone else's was sunshine and roses before you quit smoking.  When I was able to work out for the first time after I quit smoking, I was ELATED because I felt SO much better...it made me feel alive and happier than I had felt in a very long time.  I was so sick when I quit that I COULDN'T work out for a few weeks.  I have never been able to take a brisk walk outside since that illness but I can work out in a pool.  

Exercise and this site were my saving grace.

I felt like that all day too. This is my day 2. Not the first time I’ve quit.

Good advice above.  It is so normal. We all went through it.  Taking 2 supplements with D-3 in them is not enough.  You need at least 4000 iu's .  It is a miracle supplement.  It decreases the risk of cancer, diabetes and heart disease.  You are doing this.  Chin up

Yes, it is entirely normal, you are detoxing, and it is actually a good sign, your body is working it out. It really does get easier in time.  You hang in there.
