123 Days Today:
123 days nicotine free! Most of my withdrawal issues have subsided now. No more panic attacks, heart palpitations, chest pains. Those were awful. A little anxiety comes and goes at times but I can deal with it. When it does I get the feeling I can’t catch a deep breath; but I realize it’s all in my head and it passes.
My only issue now is neck pain that comes and goes. I believe it’s due to stress or being tense so I Just massage it out with a little J stick my wife bought me. Life saver! Every one out there going through a hard time, you aren’t alone. Just stick it out and remember; no matter how you feel, you are healthier now than you were when you smoked.
