Day 3

I still have a headache. I cant go to sleep, stay asleep, or wake up. I hate this. I just want to smoke. OK, really it is getting easier. The first day was the hardest. In my past experience, the 3rd day was the worst, but I have never tried to quit cold turkey before, I dont think. Maybe I did try, but did not even make it a day, not sure. Anyway, this is day 3 and it really is easier than I remember or expected. I still want to smoke, a lot, but I just keep telling myself that it is a mind game, and that my mind is stronger than a plant. I can do it. I still have a headache, funny vision, dizziness, ect...I was told that being dizzy is because my brain is not used to getting this much oxygen, I need some CO2. I read about quitting on web md, apparently it is good for you. I thought people quit because it was to cold to smoke outside, and no one will let you smoke inside anymore. Anyway, they say that the withdrawal symptoms will go away in 3-5 days, and urges to smoke will go away in a few MONTHS, jeez, this is crazy. I cant wait for the when I go a whole day without an urge. That will be cool. I really cant concentrate at all. My wife just found a cat at the park and brought it home, now I really need to smoke. My kids are crying because they can't keep it. I am so mean, they should have asked before I quit smoking. Then I would have said no nicely.
