Thanks all.
Just some questions.. First off I am not going back to Nic
But, I think I may have high blood pressure now.. I am setting up appointment with Drs. Have anyone on here realized that they have high blood pressure or and I over reacting.. I have dipped for about 20 years. Partly I think it is the stress releif that I got from dipping. ?? Just wondering.
I find that I am really tired at times.. I sleep better too I guess.. Kind of wierd.. I guess my body is going thru some changes for the good.
Thanks all
John
High blood pressure is caused by the nicotine- it should nornamlize after a few weeks when your circulation improves- your body is healing and you are getting back to normal but it takes time and it hurts- hang in there!
I noticed effects for a long time after I quit. Anxiety was huge for me, but I eventually worked through it. I had given myself a full year to get resettled into working through things like a normal person, without the crutch of nicotine or antidepressants (or whatever else the doctors would to try to get me hooked on). I've been actively working to recover from these things, and I feel like it's mostly worked out now. I'm at 99 days and I feel great... that's 266 days ahead of the schedule I set for myself.
Another odd thing was a twitching right eyelid. It may sound trivial, but it continued nonstop for about three weeks starting at two weeks in, and it was maddening.
Bottom line: you've been poisoning yourself for YEARS; don't be surprised that it takes some serious time to heal.
