It will get better I hope. Just a little rant !!!! Thanks I told my friend I was on the phone ill call you tomorrow when the real Linda is back lol

Hi Linda, It sounds like you're handling things pretty well. You're human above all else, and those who love and care about us will not take the lashings personally. Enjoy the rest of your day being smoke free.

Thanks for that

Don't be hard on yourself @Linda, we all have those days whether we've just quit or been quit for years. I snapped at my sister today Like IQ4me said, our real friends and family won't hold it against us.

You just keep moving forward, you're doing great

 

[Linda]

Thanks for the encouragement

You are doing great Linda.  It will get better each day.  You are going to love the non-smoking person you have become.

Hang in there Linda it will get better. I still have the occasional angry rant now again. Then I realize that I'm basically overreacting and return to a much calmer demeanor. It's all about how you handle and react to this is what matters.

I get that way too, Linda. Don't be hard on yourself. We are only human after all. We got this! I appreciate all the encouragement here as well.

Fortunately I was crabby before I quit smoking, so no one noticed a difference.

 

I'll bet your friend is willing to put up with some temporary irritability knowing that the long term result will be a healthier you. Keep up the good work Linda.

Get yourself a punching pillow ...worked wonders for me ....

I always ended up laughing instead of being angry ...

It was funny watching that thing fly through the air ...

All my friends and family have been very patient with me. They all said they would rather have me around non-smoking and bitchy than puffing and slowly killing myself

 

You're doing great!! 

Hugs!
