Also, this. I am sleeping lighter and less. I look forward to that righting itself.
You know, quitting smoking is different for everyone. Some people in here just seem to fly right through the experience with next to no issues at all. I had hard core quit smoking withdrawal problems. Pretty much the same as with any other quit smoking attempt. Except this time I actually stayed quit.
You all probably know by now that this isn't just about the nicotine. Your body and brain chemistry has to get adjusted to not getting all that other crap that you get from smoking. Including MAOI's (antidepressants), reduced amounts of nicotine, ammonia, carbon monoxide and on and on.
The two hardest things for me were the insomnia and my brain being a complete fried out zero attention span mess. The insomnia lasted about a month, the fried brain lasted only two weeks. About 10 days into quitting I lost a credit card. In my own apartment. Ironically, about 20 minutes after placing an order for more e-cig stuff. To this day I never found that credit card. I sat at the computer... I ordered stuff with it... I... not a frickin' clue what happened to it after that. For all I know I put it in a tuna melt and ate it. After two days of searching the apartment for it I gave up, declared it lost, had a conversation with the credit card lady about why I lost it - quitting with e-cigs, referred her to ECF, got a new card.
But honest, for those who have hard core quit smoking symptoms it does pass. And it's worth it.
