Smoking cessation: Congratulations on quitting smoking! You're probably having symptoms from nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine is a powerful, addicting stimulant. Depending on your smoking history, withdrawal symptoms will vary. See your pcp if concerned about physical symptoms that persist or if you need more help. http://www.cancer.gov/about-cancer/causes-prevention/risk/tobacco/withdrawal-fact-sheet

Nicotine Dependence: I commend you for quitting smoking. Feel Good about making Big Decision of your Life! Go to a National Park and take deep breaths to feel the Wonder of 3 million air sacs working to send Oxygen to the heart due to which you are alive. Speak out: “I do not want Bronchitis, Emphysema or Lung cancer” “I do not want risk of heart disease, high Blood pressure or Stroke” See Physician for follow up.
