great going! Congrats on your double quit!
I can only speak to the smoking quit, but I slept a lot for the first few weeks....didn't want to have to fight off the urges awake : ) I'm so happy to be beyond that now : )

Good luck to you!

Wow, huge congrats to you!  

I've had both problems, the vicodin a very long time ago, the smoking I'm only 2mos quit today in fact.  I would certainly have to say the smokes are more difficult as we use them as an emotional crutch.  

Have you educated yourself on smoking and nicotine?  If not, it would be in your best interest to do so in order to make sure you stay quit.    

You feeling better at this stage?
