hi everyone, i know i was gone for quite sometime, it's that i went home to see my dad and celebrated with him his 68th birthday. Im happy to report and update you guys with my progress, as u can see its been 18 days already and it seems that i've lost the cravings of smoking and it only comes to me when im stressed out but thats pretty normal to everybody i guess.

but the bad thing is i feel more anxious and always on the edge and having bouts of panics. recently i went to the ER coz i got pretty stressed out and got scared when i saw other people being treated in the Emergency room with all this crazy stuff goin in there. my blood presure sky rocketed  and the doctor said that i need to relax coz i look pretty jumpy and anxious. my doctor said do u have anxiety i said yes and i said please get me out of here and he gave me some anxiety medication till i felt the meds kicking in me and i felt i was floating and relaxed that my blood pressure went down and the doctor said that just to relax and if i feel super anxious the next time i need to take a pill.. so i went home and slept like a baby..

this is what i get for smoking and quitting. always feel this when i stop cold turkey. but this time im making sure im not smoking a stick again. and sometimes i have problems sleeping but i can manage it no worries.

so i hope i have shared much information of my progress and also my anxious life without nicotene.. hope to hear your from you guys soon..

bye
