Last night was the worst. Not because of any cravings, but because of lack of sleep and feelings of anxiety and doom. I finally got to sleep at ~4 a.m. and woke up at 7 a.m. I've maybe slept a combined total of 6 hours in the past 72 hours. At this point, I am not sure if my mental/psychological issues are due to quitting smoking or due to lack of sleep.
They say that you need much less caffeine when you quit smoking, as nicotine apparently accelerates the metabolism of caffeine. So, the 1st and 2nd days, I only had two diet cokes (as opposed to the usual 4 or 5 prior to quitting). After not being able to sleep, I cut it down to only 1 diet coke at noon yesterday (3rd day) and my insomnia was even worse.
Despite all this, I do still feel mentally sharp. At least I think I do. Maybe I'm hallucinating or in denial.
I'm not craving a cigarette. But I am craving sleep and mental peace.
Something just happened to the font. I just do not have the energy to figure out what. Nor do I care.
