Yes, now that I am more alert, clear of mind, and more agile, I am having dyslexic body movements. Aha!, the body is out of sync with my brain. This happened the last time I quit smoking back a few hundred years ago at just about 7 to 14 days.

 

Again, I am not complaining, just hoping I don't do something really stupid like back my car into my house when I am completely sober, Bahhaaahhha

I am not sure if this is the same but my number one issue whn I first quit was my dizziness.  It was scary because I did not know it was related to my quit .  I remember almost falling down in Macys.  At the same time, my body and sense of touch was tingling or something.  I assume now that it was more blood and oxygen getting into my system.

I don't remember having issues with my body movement but my mind was mush for a couple of months.  It was really bad, I could hardly work!

Read an article where the author (who was recently quitting) referred to the feeling as electrified concrete.

Aside from the opinion that this would make an awesome band name...*  forget where I'm going with this; carry on.

I think you hit the nail on the head, MORE OXYGEN to the system than I am or have been used to. Have almost fell over dizzy about half a dozen times but the frequency of this is far less now that I am almost two weeks into my quit.

 

Thanks for the heads up:)

I found focus a really big issue, like foggy or fuzzy head, for ages! Drove me mad. But it sounds like it might be a body re-adjustment from what you say. I've just said it somewhere else but remember to hydrate properly. We miss a lot of cues as a smoker and one of the major causes for headaches or dizzy feeling is often thirsty. x

About us

QuitTrain®, a quit smoking support community, was created by former smokers who have a deep desire to help people quit smoking and to help keep those quits intact.  This place should be a safe haven to escape the daily grind and focus on protecting our quits.  We don't believe that there is a "one size fits all" approach when it comes to quitting smoking.  Each of us has our own unique set of circumstances which contributes to how we go about quitting and more importantly, how we keep our quits.
