I’m experiencing migraines, shakiness in my hands and also pins and needles. Just wondering if anyone else has experienced these symptoms, especially the pins and needles, they’re freaking me out! Thanks

Hi there, I was just perusing the site, I wondered how you are going? If withdrawals are that bad, consider the patches. I made it harder on my self by not using them. I should have for a few weeks. I found once I got over the 2 week mark, the cravings have largely gone but have one now and again as bf smokes. But heading for week 8 and still have not bought a pack so pleased with that!!

Thanks for your advice, I’ve heard you have to take them off before bed, is that right? Otherwise it can make anxiety worse which is the last thing I need!

Today is my day 36 smoke free. Yes I had all three migraines, shakiness in my hands and also pins and needles and also heart burns, but that only lasted about 20 days. I never took anything to treat these problems, just focused on taking in deep, deep breaths, held it for a few seconds then let go.... it helped a lot especially with the migraines and shakiness in my hands. Keep going please, it will get better.

Going through the same, weird headaches, clumsey actions, lightheaded, pins and

needles. They say that nicotine has gone but there seems to be alot of side effects going on upstairs. reading this site has helped me alot

Suppose smoking for 31 years then going cold turkey has consequences
