@@lakshmikantsharma1612 great to hear that! You have the right mindset to succeed !
Been feeling this way stopped smoking wondered why i felt like getting the flu still feeling discomfort but never knew there was such a thing as quitters flu
Ginger and lemon tea, water, healthy diet, hot compress for aching back from coughing. Be kind to yourself and get lots of rest if possible.
three months now stopped smoking. thank god🙏
proud of your accomplishment🙏🏼💯keep pushing!

Today I completed 21 days without nicotine... thank you mam 🙏🙏
15 days no smoking, whooo!
@@ciphergrey6298yay!!!🎉 26 day here.
Congrats me 29 days but experiencing chest tightness and shortness of breath today and anxiety attacks
9 days without nicotine 😁
I was feelings lumps of phlegm in my esophagus for a year, hacking trying to get it out, would cause me to vomit. Once I quit, my mornings were terrible as soon as I drank water. This lasted about 1.5 weeks. But it only lasted for about an hour each morning, and the rest of the day was bliss. After two weeks, the mornings got better and better. It all depends. For anyone seeing this, it sounds too easy. And you'd be right. Just swap your brain around and it's like riding a bike. Cravings reduced to almost zero in 1.5 weeks. First 4 days are rough...but stick to it. 4 days, what's that in your life to tell yourself enough is enough.
Thank you for sharing this! I quit a week ago and I’m currently struggling with symptoms similar to yours, so you getting better makes me optimistic that mine will lessen soon as well.
Update??
Yea I was having feelings of crud or something in my throat. Couldn't seem cough it up. After about 3 weeks of a dry, unproductive cough, it all started breaking up and once I finally coughed it up it felt SOOO good. Also I started noticing myself taking deep refreshing breaths and that feels good too. It gave me encouragement when I felt myself literally getting better. No more getting short of breath from doing menial tasks, not as easily fatigued as I was before.
Today I'm smoke free but it hasn't been really all that long so I'm still a bit worried about cancer. Actually I'm Alot worried.
I had an aunt who passed away from lung cancer. She had smoked for 35+ years and didn't even feel sick.
She started having a hacking stubborn cough and her Dr found cancer. She died 4 months after finding out.
Scared the 💩 outta me.
So I quit.... Hope it ain't too late.
I’ve been coughing up phlegm any tips I’ve been to the doctor and everything they perscribe doesn’t get rid of it
@Ty Sullivan hey bud. Honestly (because I know) there's nothing your docs can do or give you. Tell yourself 10 days. No smokes, no booze. It's not fun. For me, I found that even 1 sip of a drink would make my throat situation way worse.
So...easy to say, much harder to do. But I will guarantee to you man to man, your throat etc will clear up immediately if you just give it time. Only a week. But hopefully longer if you can my friend.
@X awesome! How are you feeling today (I know life is rough) I'm still dealing too
Im currently going through quitters flu and I’ve had 2 days off work shivering, sneezing and aching in bed. I never actually smoked anything until I was 28 and started vaping, I was having 1 elf bar a day for the last 3 years. I’m not going back to that BS, I’m sticking it out 💪🏼 cravings aren’t bad at all, it’s more physical symptoms for me.
Dude I feel you 1000%. It hit me out of nowhere a day and a half after quitting. I was bedridden for a fat and a half. Shivering, body chills etc. day 3 and I’m just starting to feel better
@@TC-xe2gx all of a sudden you just feel great though I literally couldn’t stop smiling to myself when I realised I was free from that, it’s been 8 days and I’ve already saved £40. I’m glad it was hard in a way because it will make me never even start that again. All these kids smoking vapes in primary school have no idea of the nonsense they have coming up if they try quit
I’m on week 3 after smoking for 5 years and vaping for 4 years - I’ve had a headache for 2 weeks, anxiety is through the roof, sore muscles and very fatigued. Also worrying it’s something else 😭
@@GR31LLY it’ll pass! And you’ll feel so much better. But if you’re worried about something else, see your doctor!
@@TC-xe2gx Thanks bro 👌
I watched ton of your videos! Free smoking for 2 weeks 2 days! I feel great, even hard to sleep, flu, cough alot mucus etc. Stay strong! 💪 Never go back!
Hey any updates about your symptoms/health? I've been smoking free for 3 weeks now and I feel SO good!!!! It's been easier than I thought it'd be
15days of smoke free life, wish me good luck. I urge all the smokers please quit immediately. Smoke free life is awesome. If you are smoke free ==> you are Worry free, addiction free, illness free, stress free, wrinkles free, sorrow free, stain teeth free, free from dull face etc...
Indeed, the withdrawal hit me like a tonne of bricks. I was afraid it was meningitis or something. Haha, I’ll get through it though. Smoked for about seven years and I just no longer felt like it, it was even unpleasant to smoke most of the time and I’d end up forcing myself to finish the cigarette. Horrible. I’m done with it. I choose chemical independence.
I felt the same way. That horrid feeling got me to quit.
I can sooo relate
I’m on week 3 after smoking for 5 years and vaping for 4 years - I’ve had a headache for 2 weeks, anxiety is through the roof, sore muscles and very fatigued. Also worrying it’s something else 😭
@@GR31LLYsore throat got better or not please reply
Edited - Sore throat went away after 2 weeks and now everything is normal nothing to worry 🧿
This year it will be three years with out one cigarette what gave me the strength was thinking about my grandchildren to be alive to see them grow up and spend all the time and years I can with them
Excellent for sharing I had no idea what my body was going through., I don’t but maybe once a year, I woke one and felt and going and cigarettes and one day turned into 2, and turned into 5 and then turned but sicker and sicker. So at first I thought had Covid, then I felt, I experienced literally no sleep for like 36 hours & then I went hospital on my discharge they described. Anxiety, headaches, chest pain, breathing problems, and severe cough. Oh high blood pressure, my blood pressure was 200/120. They got me into the ER in seconds, pass everyone to make sure having a heart attack. My chest is still I have more relief simply from your knowledge that you have shared. It’s not what scares. Your absolutely beautiful, thank you, thank you. Knowledge is key.
I almost thought something critical was going on with me so it’s nice to see this video and your reply ✨♥️
6 months now because of your mindset training!!
I quite smoking after I recovered from corona it's been almost 3 months ,, and I was thinking that chest pain and cough are the causes of corona but now I know that ,, these are causes of after quiting smoking ,, and chest pain will not take long it will go in 10 to 15 days don't worry and you also will have cold and anxiety ,, but it's for short period of time I have gone through all of these and now after 3 months I am feeling much better 🥰🥰 thank god I quite smoking ,,, I will never smoke again in my life ,,
I had smokers flu. I felt bad for approx 1 1/2 weeks. It definitely felt like the flu. I got hot & cold, insomnia, diarrhea. Symptoms like the flu, but it was worth it after. I started sleeping much better, & felt more motivated to do things. I did have headaches, but it soon subsides. The max it lasts I believe is 2 weeks, but I experienced less.
Already one year quitting smoking.I am an anxiety patient now.Thank you for your information.😊
I was vaping all the time. I’m 24 hours into quitting and I’m so dizzy and nauseous. Been having weird dreams and can’t remember if they were dreams or real life. This is a terrible sick feeling and I hope it goes away soon. I want to be free from nicotine!
Hi Britany, congratulations on quitting vaping! 🎉 When you stop vaping, you experience nicotine withdrawal. Dizziness, nausea, and smoking/vaping dreams are part of the withdrawal symptoms. Withdrawal is the healing and adjusting process where nicotine and toxins leave your body and it doesn't have to be a painful process! Please watch these videos below:

How do you feel now? I jsut quit 10 days ago and have flu symptoms
I quit smoking and felt extremely cold, I taught I was attacked by covid-19 and then I saw this video and felt better. 😅
Me too
Same here 🤣😂🤣
Same here man. My girlfriend is convinced I have covid because she’s never smoked. I had covid once and all thats missing is that I can taste and smell much better 😄
I'm feeling it right now
@@sameersharieff5334 even i tested fa covid brother got negative so dont be scared it will lead to anxiety , so it will not last longer am on day 13 so enjoy the process bro it will be ok
My chest really hurts.... thanks for making me feel better.
Same brother 3 er trips 3-4k in hills later just finding out I got to fight thru it 7 days sober
Thanks you for the video, appreciate it. I feel like I'm drunk and absolutely have far less control over my speech. It's quite funny yet annoying at the same time. Putting logic and the reasoning make me laugh, because it makes perfect sense.
I totally understand🤣
Im on my 2nd month since i quit smoking,,by now i feel tingling on my fingernails and in my feet
I quit smoking cold turkey, 23 days now. Feeling great.
Proud of you 👏 keep it going bro
Not had a cigarette for five or six days now but my chest feels on fire
It scares me
Same do it feel like you just can get enough air. But your breathing is fine?
@@finsmith8443 does it feel like you can’t get enough air but your breathing is fine.???
Same
Thank you for this. I'm having it right now. 😒 Hate the chills. 😔
Your video quality is improved. I had chest pain after month of quit. But in few days it became normal
That's great, congrats on your success!
@@CBQMethod thank you and your videos helped me a lot
Absolutely going through this now 3rd day after only smoking 3 1/2 years 😮 yes thank you GOD for this detoxing process 😊
I needed to hear this thank you🥰
You're welcome Latonya ^^
I've been smoking cigarettes and or vaping nicotine daily for thirteen years, first time actually not smoking anything since I started. I've been smoke free for three days. I definitely noticed the anxiety, irritation, slight depression and difficulty concentrating, but I was concerned because I've had this burning, itching, painful sore throat with a lot of mucus since I started to cut down. It is very relieving to hear that this is part of the detox. I wasn't sure what was going on lol It's funny how I started having worse feelings after quitting smoking than while I was actually smoking. Cough drops have been my life saver.
It’s crazy almost scares you !
Hey man, has the sore throat gone away? Mines been sore for a few weeks now after quitting vaping and I’m paranoid I have somt else hahaha
Is it normal for your chest to start hurting after u quit vaping for like 15 hours
@@troybell5995 yo If you got a answer please tell me what is it cause I've been vaping for almost 5 years and i just quit its my first weak and my throat is killing me I sound like a chainsaw bruh
How long did your sore throat last for? I'm asking because that's what I have now
thank you soo much have been worrying so much but you have mentioned all of my symptoms so hopefully i'll be all good gave up smoking completely a week ago after 10 years of smoking.
I've had nasal and sinus pains and loss of smell and taste for the last two days. It's just another thing to put up with when you first quit I guess. Just as my smell was coming back and things were clearing up I get this :O lol.
yes runny nose in the mornings and just starting to feel tingling in the hands and feet- day 23
I’m worried! I’ve been smoking weed for 10yrs & I quit a couple weeks ago. Starting a few days ago, I feel like death. Mucus, coughing, AWFUL sore throat, ear ache, all kinds of stomach issues from acid reflux & heartburn which I’ve never had before, headaches everyday, exhausted, sweats pretty bad. I had to switch to eating tofu & veggies & have been adding new immune support supplements to my regiment. I hope to God this passes soon, Idk how much more I can take 😭
how are ya now?
Priyansh Mevada hi! Doing a lottttt better. All of that has subsided. The other day I did wake up with a smoke like taste in my mouth & my throat felt a little irritated which was weird,
But on a daily basis I have no more struggles. Thank you for asking
Omg the sore and dry throat, trouble digesting, headaches, and excess sweating. I quit one week ago and am experiencing all of this. How are you now?
@@lyn9415 I quit for 4 months & regressed ☹️ unfortunately weed helps my anxiety which I really had trouble functioning those 4 months. I accidentally set my kitchen on fire & had all kinds of incidents. Mental break downs. UGH. I am going to attempt quitting again & try out gummies instead of smoking. I hope your journey gets better soon!
Im going tru dis exact same ting. I smoked weed for abt 20yrs n boy oh boy. It's terrifying
I thought NRT was going to be helpful. Don't even bother. You don't need it either...mind set is everything. Been 3 weeks 1 day. Coughing like crazy every morning, but fine the rest of the day. I'm happy. Really happy
Exactly, my physical health is shit because of the withdrawal pains but my mental health is great! I don't need it anymore!
i love how u talk with your hands!
Haaaaaaaaaaaaa lol I hear ya and I know what mean true story 😂😂😂😂👌👌👌
This is my second month after quitting smoking,i feel a bit of breathlessness even if the oxygen level is normal
I’m going through the exact same thing how did it go what happened
@@normanrobitaille8520
He’s dead
@@jackrainbow2219 hahahahaha
Am now in My 4th day of quitting, I have a very strong 🤒 flu like, nose draining, headache conjunction, chest pain, joint pain, fever. It made me realise how bad the cigarette is
Thanks a lot doc..needed this info badly
Thankyou
❤️this was helpful and motivating to keep abstinent from smoking
I'm on quitting day 12 and it's been horrible. I haven't got a single craving but I have really bad insomnia now and can't sleep for more than 5 hours a night since I've quit. I am constantly struggling for breath, my nose is stuffed and I feel horrible.
Thank you, you really inspired me to quit. Thank you so much
24 hours into it and it’s quite tough tbh 🤧 I feel achy all over, in my gums and bones. All muscles are sore like I just worked out. Everything is exhausting. My mood constantly feels like I’ve just received bad news… with flashes of shroom-like calmness. I’m ready for this to be over 😵💫
I am going through this myself ,2 weeks nicotine free did a week on the patches the rest is natural healing . At the moment my whole body is aching feels.like.flu.
Me too. I've never heard of smokers flu. I was thinking I had throat cancer. 😢
I have been experiencing these symptoms thank you for your feed
I experienced them and still am cause I have been off for less than a week now but the other thing that's important is the terrible low's you might feel in the first few days which might even bring up tears and depression and for me, it was tears and feeling like I was not myself but really after that it really gets easier and especially if you have this kind of content beforehand, there is no reason to harm yourself when you could rather be building yourself!
I am now way more focused, disciplined and feeling a whole lot better cause I understand this decision helps me in literally EVERY SINGLE WAY so yeah stick to it and if you have not experimented with it...DONT!
That's good to know because I really thought I was just being a drama queen as I broke down in tears several times my first few days!
@@stephanieunderwood328 same here, my tears just start flowing as i was so sad in my 1st and 2nd week with the sensation that you feel in the chest.. now thank god no more of unexpected glassy eyes
im a smoker for almost 13yrs....last 3 days i got fever i still smoke....however after i smoke one stick of cigarette i stop smoking now its my two days of quitting cigarrete....i still have fever and now my throat got itchy and im coughing ...
Its been 2 months since i quit i have suffered from blocked nose sometimes i cant breathe any nostril i was told hay fever given all this prescription medication cost me money than actually smoking i now its my lungs trying to heal i wont lie its been hell lack of sleep no energy anxiety time of work im eating really well now trying yoga humidifier in my room steam inhalation im hoping this nightmare will end soon cause i never want to smoke again
Same to me, 2 months after stop smoking I get a cough and running nose
i quit nicotine vapes two days ago. I randomly started feeling like i had a flu. Hope this doesnt last long !
It will for me long time 2nd week i started smoking again cause i cant feel like shit every day i have work to do and need mental clarity.
@chef boyardee, how long did it last? I just quit vaping nicotine two days ago and this is awful 😞 I thought I’d just have to fight cravings but I’m so sick, dizzy and exhausted.
@@brittany9423 when did it go away? I’m almost 2 weeks in with no nicotine and have symptoms of the flu
@@babygirl24873 I’m ashamed to say that I started smoking again 😣 I’m praying for you to have more strength than I did. Good luck and I hope the flu feeling goes away soon.
Is it normal to get weak and shaky after exerting yourself physically? Never had any issue or anything until I quit smoking 7 days ago.
I've began vaping cessation.
Nicotine withdrawal is manageable for me. Has anyone else experienced Severe allergy issues after quiting vaping? Such as runny noise, sneezing and watery eyes?
As far as excess mucus due to lungs detoxing- this makes sense to me.
However work today (day one without vaping) was Terrible for me.
Not because of withdrawal nor moodiness but due 100% to the above mentioned allergy symptoms.
I took cetirizine in the morning and it didn't help. I took fexofenadine while at work and it only seemed to ease my symptoms by maybe 10%.
The inverse is that when vaping I would experience clogged sinuses, maybe single nostril blockage and pressure build up in my cheeks and puffiness under my eyes.
I'm trying to make sense of this and I'm thinking that stopping the vape today cold turkey was the main contributing factor because I just got home and hit the vape a few times and my sinuses have seemed to relax a bit, definitely more than the medication did.
I know that nicotine disrupts sleep patterns which is one thing that encourages me to quit but considering I only hit the vape twice yesterday in preparation for today-
I did experience some insomnia lastnight so I bought some diphenhydramine (antihistamine known as benadryl) to ensure that I don't struggle with another sleepless night because benadryl Always knocks me out as the active ingredient is also the main ingredient in many over the counter sleep aids.
I'm 24hrs quit. I'm experiencing dizziness, nausea, cold feet, tingling in my feet and throughout my body, brain fog and mood swings.
I can relate to that. Do you fall asleep, or feel the need for naps throughout the day? And do you get this strange feeling inside your head as if you're falling when you're going to sleep?
@@martinrea8548 Yes. I was extremely tired throughout the day for the first 7wks. My breathing was heavier than usual as my lungs cleared out. I was wheezing and congested. I even felt like is this even worth it and I can truly say it was worth it. I'm starting to feel the benefits. I'm 2 months smoke free. My energy levels are back up, no brain fog, no stress or anxiety. Cravings may come once in a blue moon but they don't last long. I'm doing great and living a great smoke free life. I can also workout now more competitive because I'm not short of breath. My posture is even different. I could go on and on.
I have the same symptoms how long did your cold feet last because mine are going on for 2 weeks now
I can't lie, it's been a tough week for me post quitting. I feel tired all the time and fall asleep during the day, and as I'm falling asleep I feel like I'm falling; my mood can best be described as flat, verging on the sad and depressed; I don't seem to have much interest in anything and don't feel like going out much. I'm eating ok, but I'm drinking beer, to compensate for the loss of nicotine, I think. On the good side, my lungs are already much better and I can swim much better than as a smoker. Time seems to crawl by very slowly, very strange. Am I normal? Will these feelings pass? I used to be a moderate smoker, maybe 12-15 per day. I've given up in the past, but always reverted after maybe three months or so, but this time it feels pretty tough. Thanks and good luck to anyone out there quitting.
I’m feeling the same. I don’t believe the body is ever really back closer to normal before the year mark. It’ll never be like it was before the first puff or the first year smoking mark or the 5, 10.. but the sooner you quit the better your results can be.
Do not go back. It’s a sick thing for someone to have invented something to give to people that has poison in it. Why do you think we feel so bad trying to get off? Our bodies are in shock trying to fix things we didn’t know were wrong.. our brains were telling us everything is good, we got dopamine.. no. Get away and help loved ones get off. It’s a sick joke
It's been just 4 days since I quit smoke. Now I have flu, cough, breathlessness, and headache. Is this normal?
Hi Matt, congratulations on quitting! When you quit, your respiratory system is trying to clear out all the mucus and residues of smoking left in your body. That might cause shortness of breath and cough. Also, when you quit, your body starts getting more oxygen and it takes a bit of time to get used to it and adjust. This can cause headaches. However, if you're experiencing flu (with fever and chills), then it may not be because of quitting smoking. If this persists, we recommend talking to your doctor about it.

Hi, congratulations on quitting smoking! 🎉 When you quit smoking, having mild chest pain or tightness in the chest is normal and can be due to sore muscles as your respiratory system expels the remaining nicotine from your body. Keep moving forward. You can do this! :)

My mild aortic valve prolapse is NOT liking quitting. Just a few days post quitting, my heart valve is more floppy. It is pretty uncomfortable. I no longer have bad physical cravings, but my heart seems to have been pretty dependent upon the presence nicotine. Not getting many other symptoms except some definite increases in pain and fatigue.
Im quitting vaping right now and i caved a couple times here and there but for the most part im not vaping every hour or minute. I went to sleep and woke up with the worst chest pain i ever experienced. Doesnt hurt when i breathe nor do i have a fever it just hurts when i cough up.brown stuff.
Oh thank God! Seriously! I hadn't even "quit" quit yet: a few weeks ago, I tested positive for influenza and went through antibiotics/steroids and felt pretty good. Last week, I started watching your videos and I said, well I can't quit ever, *but I can get a TarBar* (plastic filter to put on cigarettes that collects the tar, it's gross) and that made me think, I'm quitting. Even "Yes, I've QUIT! I'll just smoke a few a day with these tarblock filters! Yay!"
I got SO SICK I thought I had caught the freakin flu again. Actually, I thought I was going to die (no joke). Bright sunny day, I had zero energy. Oh, and last night I barely made it up the stairs to go to bed! I didn't take my sleeping pill or even remember going to bed well. Passed out! And earlier today, I was like, I'm going to the doctor on Monday of Holy Week. I might not be able to do Palm Sunday tomorrow (lol, I thought about buying a Hoveround! I felt like that sick!) so I fired up a cigarette without a tarbar.
Nearly instant recovery. No cough, such a feeling of relief, and I didn't put 2+2 together. I thought I was just healed and went back to the tarbar filters... _and started feeling sick again._ So I searched RUclips and here I landed from a "does quitting smoking make you feel ill" search.
At least I know! I never knew it before when trying to quit; I just figured I had really bad luck, but now I think I can get through Church in the morning, and cancel the funeral planning for next week 😂 (Seriously, I was going to buy a casket.) I'll just "slow down" on the tarbars instead of using tarbars all the time, and gradually increase my tarbar usage. You want a cold hard stat? My oxygen level went from *89* last week, to *93* this week. Just using Tarbars! ("Tarblocks" seem better, btw). If I cut my tarbars to every other cigarette or something, I should be able to hang in there until I can get a nicotine replacement patches or something, so I don't feel that sick using Tarbars on all cigarettes (and that ugly tar made me REALLY cut down the number I was smoking, too: it's gross!). So I think I can manage! (Eventually. I'm still healing up from the actual influenza.) I'll watch more videos. Thanks for this "smokers' flu" knowledge.
How's the quit now?
@@martinrutley-wk5ds buying tarblocks. I'm way too addicted I guess. The tarblocks really do seem to help (having a nicotine fit while smoking with a tarblock: just the worst :/ ) I guess after I get through some life stressors, perhaps I'll quit for real. /shrug
I’ve never smoked a cigarette but smoked cannabis for years a week after my throat is really sore was never really sick while consumption wondering if this is the same for cannabis
Probably. It’s your lungs trying to detox for you.
This is true video . Salute you . Please tell us about treatment of this flue.
I love this woman
It’s been just over a month since I quit smoking and I have absolutely no desire to go back.. I even feel slightly sick smelling any cigarette smoke around me when I’m out. I suddenly felt a bit ill a few days/week ago, like a flu but not quite a flu I’ve ever experienced before.. irritation in my throat, itchy ears and tightness in my chest, really tired and also one day I felt extreme dizziness.. I was convinced I had covid so took a test today but it’s negative. I thought that this could be my body getting rid of a 16 year smoking habit because I can’t figure out if it’s a cold or flu.. just doesn’t feel like a normal flu. It’s horrible though but I guess it could be smokers flu.. it’s just weird that it has started a month after quitting?? Anyone else experienced this? I was a little sick before I decided to quit so I didn’t feel like smoking then although I’ve been a very heavy smoking for too many years, minimum was 10-15 a day. I surprisingly got through quitting quite easily it was the perfect timing personally for me and things just worked out good for me, I’m not craving at all. I did crave a hit in my throat for a couple days and bought a zero nicotine ripple which I’ve barely used.. I even thought that I could have been having an allergic reaction to it? I just wonder if anyone else is experiencing a similar thing and how long did it last for?? Right now it’s coming up to a week I’ve been feeling like this… headaches, tiredness, tight chest, irritation in my throat and even ears.. bit of a blocked nose.. I haven’t seen any improvement in the last 4 days.
How r u now
@@chakravarthym2068 I’m feeling better now 👍 I did start getting crazy cravings again after a while of quitting and finding new ways to deal with stress was very difficult, at some points all I could think about was having a smoke. For me exercise and getting into different herbal teas helped me replace the nicotine, I have put on a little weight as I find I enjoy food more now which isn’t such a bad thing. My diet is healthier and I’ve introduced supplements like omega 3 and collagen which I’ve seen changes in my skin, hair, muscles ect. Taking care of my health and body really helps distract me from smoking now. It’s not easy at random times after smoking for so long but it is worth it, I get more done for myself rather then postpone them. I won’t lie, I still get cravings or the thought to buy and take a quick puff when I crave some quick release but finding alternative ways has been more productive for me in the long run. Smoking made me not deal with the deeper things that were bugging me in my life and as a consequence a lot of my problems weren’t going away, not having control made me insecure and depressed. I find that I am dealing with problems and finding better solutions for them now which improves my mood, confidence in myself and a lot of other aspect of my life.
@@xazi6549 Amazing to hear! About to hit my month now and funny enough moving to teas as well, but have had an ongoing soar throat... its very annoying and i keep drinking energy drinks, I hope the soar throat goes away soon, how long did it take after the month mark?
@@TheGumpyKiddo you still have sore throat? I'm at 23 days. I'm just learning about all this.
No where near as much as before but it lasted another month afterwards, its usually during the morning/night and I believe things like fans made it worst. It is better now but once in awhile i notice non sick soar throats, I hope yours gets better with time!@@talulatree5297
Mam what are best food to detox lungs and blood from nicotine i was a heavy user of chewing tobbaco
mullein tea
I got flu like symptoms after I quit smoking, but I didn’t quit nicotine. I switched to tobacco free dip. I still got really sick and was coughing up a lot of stuff. I think it has more to do with the lungs healing rather than the nicotine withdrawal
try quitting nicotine. If you haven't done that then you have no idea.
@@lagitanaurbana my doctor said it was from smoking
Thank you , you had helped me so much
Is shortness of breath normal after quitting its been almost 3 days now?
Hi, congratulations on being 3 days smoke-free! 🎉 When you quit, your respiratory system is trying to clear out all the mucus and residues of smoking left in your body. That might cause shortness of breath. You can know more about withdrawal symptoms, how long it lasts and how to cope with them here: ruclips.net/video/XYeoCzUgwJA/видео.html
Great videos. Thank you x
I am clean for a month now but unable to compare withdrawal symptoms as opposed to any covid symptoms . Please provide some tips to differentiate. I initiated cold turkey on the 8th of August. Thanks Abhilash
Great question. If you have fever, then it's NOT from the withdrawal. I explain more here: ruclips.net/video/umrdFkGclVo/видео.html
Can this cause chills and cold sweat?? And what about lower lung pain?
Quit a few days ago along with alcohol and it’s been terrible.
Hello quit smoking it's been more than 2 months..m having like stomach upset...gas or acidity..cough problem mainly at morning and night...body ache..it is normal..what should i do.. sometimes it irritate me like hell
I quit smoking for a week and started again and I’ve been coughing constantly and having headaches? Is this normal?
I have this too....I'm coughing up phlegm to the point where I have a headache...and am super congested every night...
7 days off cigarettes. Occasional cold chills, bad taste in my mouth, physical cravings subsided . However, I THINK about smoking. Constantly. What should I do ?
u r very kind
Very very helpful madam,
Many thanks,
Ma'am i having a runny nose and it's my day 1 around 20hours gone!!! Is runny nose a symptom of quitting cold turkey??
i have the same. i would think so since you get pretty much all the symptoms of a common cold
Yes, this is a withdrawal symptom. You can learn more about withdrawal symptoms, here: smokingcessationformula.com/nicotine-withdrawal-symptoms/
Ye 3 days after i quitted it started
bone broth really did help me
I'm on my 6 day n when my stomach is empty I feel horrible chest 5ight chest burn stomach but when I'm full I feel like politoad but everyday it gets better just gotta hang in there
Hii Your video gave me a lot of motivation as I was worried with all these symptoms after I have quit smoking. Just wanted to ask if having difficulty breathing can be considered as normal as I am asthmatic and used to smoke?
how are you now?
I have very painful headache. I quit smoking before 2 months ..now i feel headache and sinus very painful... What i do know please please tell me. 🙏
Hi Mudabbir, congratulations on being 2 months smoke-free! When you quit, your body starts getting more oxygen, and it takes a bit of time to get used to it and adjust. This can cause headaches. This lasts 1-4 weeks.
When you quit, your respiratory system is trying to clear out all the mucus and residues of smoking left in your body. That might cause a runny nose. This lasts 1-5 days.
If you're experiencing a very painful headache and sinus problems 2 months after quitting smoking, then it may not be because of quitting smoking. We recommend talking to your doctor about it.
I gave up months ago. Cold turkey. Not had any flu symptoms but I've had CONSTANT thick mucus in my throat. Constantly clearing my throat. It's driving me nuts. I expected it for a few weeks but it's taking the piss now.
Day 2 and I feel like I have a bad cold. No energy and overall sickness. Still able to eat.
I experienced every single one of those symptoms and right now I am like at the worse point lmao 🤣
Im smoker quiter, Almost 9 months
