Dysphoria  

Dysphoria is a state of feeling unwell or unhappy; a feeling of emotional and mental discomfort as a symptom of discontentment, restlessness, dissatisfaction, indifference, depression or anxiety.

These uncomfortable feelings are what bring many back to smoking.

We all had some uncomfortableness when we quit but IT DOES GO AWAY if you stick with your quit.

Just Remember, "The only way out is through""

Thank you, because that is how I've been feeling and it's a bit frightening..... 😞  Day 36

Hate to say it but it applies to anything in life. I grieved over having to return a little puppy but I KNEW I couldn't take care of it and smoking wasn't going to help. Dysphoria was there until I got THROUGH IT TO THE OTHER SIDE. Today is much brighter and I'm much happier w/o the extra added responsibility for a disabled 68 year old woman. Thanks to the EX Community and people, in particular, like you, Dale, I'm THRU it now and will continue to live my life one day at a time.

Dysphoria.. Never heard it before. Love new words! Maybe it's the "antonym" for Euphoria???
