Week 1 was great. Week 2 is awful. What happened?

I want to preface this with saying I'm on Day 3 of not smoking.

Week 1 was nice - the voice in my head was quiet, I could get work done, I was a nicer person. My anxiety was completely gone. I did have the dry mouth and headaches. And I was exhausted and had a low mood. But I felt hopeful things would pass.

I'm now halfway through week 2 and I just want to stop Concerta. I can't start anything even though I want to. I feel sad, tired and miserable. Everything feels to be on hard mode - cooking a meal, WFH, going to the gym etc. And even if I start, I can't focus. The only positive is that my brain isn't going at a million miles an hour but this can't be right?

Has anyone else been here?
