1st of all, congratulations on one week down! The first week is often known as "Hell Week", and I think you can generally expect things to trend towards better from here on out. Way to go. Regarding your question, I am absolutely not a doctor, but I am aware that smoking and quitting has all sorts of effects on a person's digestive system that could easily include what you've described. Listen to your body, be mindful of the tendency to overeat when we first quit, and surround yourself with healthy, tasty snacks. Most importantly, and because I don't know how much you've absorbed about the Law of Addiction, I need to say this: once you've managed to stop ingesting nicotine, doing so will pretty much immediately re-awaken the addiction and send you back to square one. Unless you're deliberately using nicotine replacement as a quit tool and your vape is part of that, or it's a no-nicotine placebo, I suggest you get rid of it now. No good will come of temptation.

I dunno. It wasn't the hardest thing I ever did, and it was easier than I expected (because I thought it was impossible), but it was still pretty damn hard. Worthwhile things often are. Maybe not everyone had the same experience as you?

We did mean you. A lot of times, early quitters will show up here with the best of intentions, but then stumble for one reason or another. We generally never hear from them again. But then there's people like you, who come to play for real. My heart goes out to you for what you must be going through, but I'm so impressed that you're doing it and staying quit. Whatever you're doing, keep doing it!

ps - don't worry, probably just beginner's luck again :)

too late gg - gotta go
