You may experience a variety of withdrawal symptoms such as cravings, headaches and anxiety.

There are also medications for heavy smokers, such as nicotine nasal spray and nicotine inhalers.

A strong cigarette craving is one of the most common withdrawal symptoms.

The physical need for nicotine will subside in about two weeks. However, the psychological cravings may continue to be strong for several months after your body no longer needs nicotine.

You may also feel irritable and restless. You may have a hard time concentrating. If this is the case, you should find a relaxing activity to do at home.

You can also go for a walk or do some exercise. The change in activities will help your mind and body get distracted from the cravings.

Some of the symptoms may seem like a side effect, but they are actually a sign that your body is healing itself.

For example, you may experience nausea and constipation. You may feel dizzy, but this is just your body's reaction to the increase in blood flow through your vessels. You may also experience a sore throat.

When you quit smoking, you may also find that you eat more than usual. This is due to stress and the need to use your hands.

However, you should try to remember that the cravings will go away in time. If they do not, talk to your doctor.

You may also want to try taking nicotine replacement products, such as gum and patches, to help you quit smoking.

If you find yourself in a depressed mood, you may be experiencing withdrawal symptoms. You may think about harming yourself or dying.

If these symptoms do not subside, call 911 or go to the emergency room. You should also stay busy and talk with supportive people.

Another common withdrawal symptom is a cough. You may find that your heart rate increases, especially when you feel the urge to smoke.

You can also experience dizziness and a headache. You should drink plenty of water. It will help your entire body, including your lungs. You should also avoid heavy meals before going to sleep.

You may experience cravings for food and alcohol. These cravings are due to your body's desire for nicotine.

If you find these cravings hard to deal with, you may want to ask a friend or family member for help.

You should also avoid smoking and buying cigarettes for others. You should keep a "no smoking" sign in your home to remind you that it is okay to quit.

If you are experiencing withdrawal symptoms, you should talk to your doctor.

You can also ask for help through a quit smoking counselor. These counseling sessions can double your chances of quitting.
