Answers:
honey, I so know how you feel, i am like it now and it is so bloody hard, at the moment forget quitting, just relax, you will know when your body is right to quit!.

I too suffer depression/anxiety & panic attacks, and I am having the worst week, you don't want to be hurting or going through this, but it is hard, I do feel for you honey!.

Try not to take to much on just yet!.

Listen to relaxing music, and try to breathe slow and deeply!.

And please try and have a good day!.

You are in my thoughts!.

And to all the negitive replies, unless you have or are going through this you have no idea how we feel!. Please don't be cruel!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I don't have any personal experience with regards to quitting smoking, but as far as I'm concerned there wouldn't be a significant association between quitting and depression!. What would get you down is if you tried to quit and then gave in and seemingly failed!.

As far as I'm concerned, the only way you can quit something, be it a habit or addiction or whatever, is if you really believe you want to quit!. Don't just decide to quit because you've seen ads that make you guilty or someone told you its bad for you!. You've got to really think about it and understand that smoking is no good for your body, and it really doesn't help you in life at all!. You could do better without it!. Don't just like the idea of quiting - like quiting!.

I don't know if there is an actual scientific side to kicking nicotine addiction that would cause depression, but in the end it comes down to mind over matter!. If you really want to quit you will, and you will be happier for it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think what you are experiencing is nicotine withdrawal symptoms rather than actual depression!. Its natural to be irritable and stressed when you first quit or cut down on smoking!. Stick with it and it will get easier!. Some nicotine replacement products like gum or patches will help you!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

good for you
nicotine or other!?
doesn't really matter it all affects your health
after a long battle with all forms of smoke
i feel that certain of us (you, me and heaps of others)
are looking for something we don't know what
but we often confuse it with a smoke ( a drink, fast food, gambling)
it's most probably because we are wired to addictive behaviour
which is often connected to depression, anxiety etc etc
welcome to the club mate
believe me things get easier as you get older
the trick is to sit back take a big breath and decide what you want to do about things
my advice get healthy and anyway it's too expensive take care of yourself and keep trying even when you slip back into bad habits
sometimes it takes a heap of tries to get over some addiction
you have to find other things to do
