Sometimes there happens a nervousness on me, pins and needles, something is pushing me and getting aggressive... When something happens bad, avoiding nicotine makes me feel strange
I think it will change and be a better me by time.
Maybe too much energy is pushing, may be away from tobacco on a bad and nervous day...
Friends, in your cases, have this happened and what would be the best way to get away from this nervousness, to stay cool and easy...

I'm on day 5 of quitting smoking too although I am on Champix. However, I still at times feel as though I could have a cigarette. When this happens I do deep breathing. I find that it works better than anything else.
I fill my lungs as much as I can, hold my breath for about 6 seconds then breathe out. For some reason it seems to work.
I do a lot of yoga & I can remember being told that deep breathing activates the parasympathetic ( involuntary ) nervous system. So I'm guessing the deep breathing somehow tends to bypass the conscious " I need a cigarette" craving.
Pins and needles I had, yes. I think it's something to do with the increase in bloody supply to the hands and feet.
In terms of aggression, it's easy to mistake that for anxiety, which I definitely did suffer from. But as my partner said, "don't be such a wuss!". It'll certainly pass.
