Night sweats??

Featured Replies

I woke this morning and my pillow was drenched! (eww) I did not see any where else on the forums where this addressed. Is this really a thing with quitting? Has any one else had that happen after quitting? 

Hi Dianne, everyone's quit is different, that didn't happen to me though. It could also be just a little fever you had through the night and not attributed to your quit. 

Congratulations on one week quit, you're doing great and done with hell week!😊

I have night sweats. I could attribute them to menopause but they have increased since I quit smoking. They are horrible. Sleeping cool doesn’t help either. I will suffer through them because all the bad needs to come out. I wonder if night sweats take the place of coughing in my case. I don’t cough. At all. I can’t even make myself cough anything up. Sometimes this worries me. But regardless, while you are up changing sheets or just a pillowcase make sure to drink plenty of water before lying back down. Replace the fluids. No need to become dehydrated. 🙂

@Gus, I didn't cough anymore after I quit either. But I coughed plenty when I smoked! Don't worry about it though because the gunk comes out other ways, including by sweating 🤗

I had that problem, I would wake up and my pillow would be soaked, my wife started to double and triple the pillow case to help.

I finally found  that if I left one leg out from under the covers my head did not sweat.  seems my body needed another source to expel my body heat, especially in the first weeks / months of my quit.

It still happens now and then again from time to time, if I cover up all the way unless it is pretty cold in the room.   I guess I'M
