Hello Dear New Quitter: I was struck by what you wrote as I could recall feeling sad too, early into my quit. It's odd isn't it? It doesn't last but I didn't mind it as it seemed like during those days that all feelings were good and justified. Stopping such an addiction plays havoc on our very soul so of course sadness would be a part along with anger, and gladness. It's the stuff of life humn?
I hope you are kind to yourself these days and read daily adn often here of others who are marching to the same drum as you. You'll find comfort here among all of us that truly understand what you're going through.
I wish you great sucess. Believe in the "NTAP", and baby steps, one day at a time.
Yours, Dionne, free for a very long time.
