    I’m feeling a little down today. I  could actually eat a cigarette!  So far I have resisted and haven’t lit up.
    Was socializing and had a couple glasses of wine. 
    I phoned my sister and had a good chat with her and she helped me work through my emotions
    it really helps to have a support system in place!.

    Hello Stomper,

    It's ok to feel the way that you have been feeling. Making big life changes can lead to all kinds of emotions and what you are feeling is normal. As you work through the cravings you will settle into feeling more confident without cigarettes and it will get easier as time goes by. 

    Good for you for recognizing that support is an important part of a solid quit plan! Glad to hear that you have your sister there to help you out. Also, glad to see you using the community forum. Thanks for sharing!

    Wishing you continued success as you move forward toward your goals!

    Warm regards,
    Karen, Quit Coach
