Hi there, huge welcome to quit support and congratulations on making the decision to kick that habit 😁 it's perfectly normal to feel like you're coming down with full on flu when you quit ! Fortunately it only lasts a few weeks or so but is normal for your immune system to be a wee bit cross with you in the beginning. Hang on in there and it will get better 😊

hi donesmokin,

flu like symptoms are very common in the early days of quitting..you are doing well..j your body has a bit of adjusting to do with not smoking and it can effect us all in different ways...none of these things last for too long and are all bearable :) :) hang in there

It will be worth it all !
