Another attempt to quit smoking.

Ok, today is the fourth day I have managed to keep myself away from smoking. This is surely not the first time I have tried to quit, but here is how it has been so far...
Day 1 (Sunday): It was fairly easy... I actually came into the office to work some, but no good luck... Instead came in to the office and watched a whole lot of Tailspin cartoon on youtube. Then it was back to home in the afternoon. There was not much of a craving as such, it was mostly self pity.
Day 2 : Now the heat is on. It was a lot of self pity, and a lot of craving also. Mind was not in my control... Constantly annoyed with anything and everything. Kept thinking about having a smoke, but kept trying to push it.. trying to avoid thinking about it, and trying to give myself some pep talk.
Day 3: It was surly better then day 2, but still no work. Not a single act of work happened.... From office work perspective it was a wasted day all together. Again, kept giving pep talks and avoided the bad habit. Kept feeling very sad, lonely and jealous.. Very jealous of everyone and everything. Went home and tried doing some yard work. That helped. Also this day morning got up a tiny bit earlier then usual and did about 20 mins of meditation. Not very successful, but tried at least.
Day 4 (Today)..... Again today got up a bit early, and did about 22 mins of meditation. Mind is getting better in control. Actually touched very very briefly... but surely did touch on a little bit of work today. But, not satisfied... and feeling sad. Mind was better in the morning, felt like things were finally getting better then, but now in the afternoon... just wanting the day to be over and want to go home very badly.
