Is this natural?

    Apparently yes, although I've been advised that I may suffer from insomnia...

    yeah, is natural, as nicotine leaves the system and stuff.

    Good luck bird, and well done for trying.

    Haven't smoked since Monday... Been using the nicotine inhaler but 2 capsules a day instead of the recommended 6-12....

    My joints hurt, I'm tired and feel cold and grumpy.

    yeah, it's the withdrawal, get some extra sleep. But remember that ultimately you'll have better circulation and be less irritable.

    I just went for a walk to help my insomnia and on the way back ended up stopping by the shop to buy some fags. Dont normally smoke, but always go back to them when im feeling particularly stressed! Just have to try and limit myself, dont want to get into it again!
