NRT Gives me chronic kidney pain
Sazerac replied to DeadlyChicken's topic in Quit Smoking Discussions
I just put this into Jillars post and will re post it here. I am so sorry you are not feeling any better and really proud of you for keeping your quit ! I didn't feel great at three months. I was proud of myself for quitting and amassed my power from that but, I was still struggling. I don't think many people feel Great until the year is over and life settles into the new 'normal', smoke free. Then, for me, I realized how great I actually felt and how the struggle was worth it. How many years did you smoke ? How long are you nicotine free ? It is unrealistic to think that you are going to feel GREAT in three months. You should be feeling better and better as time goes on and you have less craves and triggers to conquer. Many of us felt the lethargy and the brain fog. This passes, you just have to live through it. The Great Smoke Free Mental Fog Quitting smoking changes you. A little weight gain is normal. Get moving. This will energize you out of the lethargy too. There are many reasons that could explain your gums and your other issues but, you really should consult medical professionals. Not knowing what is wrong is much more stressful than knowing and taking steps to heal yourself. Smoking often hid physical issues that needed attention and now, without the veil of smoke, it is time to address this. Using Cigarettes To Self Medicate Pre Existing Conditions -

There is a plethora of mis-information out there about Cold Turkey, much of it perpetuated by drug companies. Many health workers, including physicians, are ill-informed or mis-informed about quitting in general, Cold Turkey specifically. That being said, there is no wrong way to quit and there a plenty of successful quits that depended on NRTs. I chose Cold Turkey because of the simplicity, the expense (FREE) and the immediacy of getting nicotine out of my body and out of my life. Joel Spitzer was the first one (and certainly the only comprehensive one) that I found with consistent and accurate information on quitting Cold Turkey. But, no matter how you quit, Joel's resources are invaluable in understanding nicotine addiction and staying nicotine free. We are lucky to have Joel Spitzer's Quitting Library here.
