Why is there such apathy after stopping smoking? -

Why is there such apathy after stopping smoking? -

It has been nearly 2 weeks, and I cannot tell you how much my state of mind has deadened. I feel so apathetic about people and things I once really was addicted to in a way, now I just feel like everything is tasteless in my life.

Is this normal?

when will this change?

Thanks for your help!when you were smoking, the cigs gave you a real energy boost and, a high. This is just the adjustment your body is making since now there are no highs. I quit 20 yrs ago after smoking 2 pks a day, I know how you feel. It will pass but you must make substitutes for the cigs ie exercise, fresh air, make yourself socialize with non smokers AND set aside all the money you would have spent on cigs and book yourself a trip as incentive. IT IS TOUGH, but believe me, it is worth it !!!yes it is normal every one suffers differently but hold on in there it will pass xx
