Trying to figure out how people quit smoking and stay sane. My fiancee and I both quit on Christmas Day. Neither of us have had any smokes since Christmas Eve. She is feeling better, except for being sick this week, she says she can definitely breath better, and just feels better overall. I, on the other hand, continue to wonder if the feeling that I'm only a few seconds away from running someone down on the sidewalk in order to steal their cigarette is normal. I know it's not but then it seems like it would be a good idea the next second. I am so friggin' edgy these days and it feels like my strings have been tuned three octaves too high, pretty much 24-7. If I see someone smoking, I simultaneously hate them/want to go beg a smoke from them. Having a hard time going to sleep and even harder time sitting still. I'm eating too much because I'm replacing smokes with food, which is exactly what I DON'T want to do. I think my brain is just hard wired to smoke or something. Dammit.
