I'm feeling nauseous. Is this normal?

I was advised to buy "The Easy way for women to stop smoking" by Allen Carr.

It has just arrived so looking forward to reading it as I have a quiet day today. Has anyone else read it? Spoken to many who have successfully quit after reading it. 🙏

Hi Agentparsnip, I'm afraid feeling nauseous is quite a common withdrawal symptom.

Try to be patient with yourself and kind to your body as it's going through tough changes.

I haven't read that particular book but knowledge is power!💪🚭xx

Hi agentparnip, Feeling nausea is very common. try a mint or similar to take the feeling away. The Allen Carr book is very popular and over the past few years we have had a mixed reaction . Some members have found it useful others were not as sure. All you can do is give it a try.

I suggest you have a read through the pinned posts and perhaps some of the success stories.

Hi Parsnip.

I quit without Allan Carr’s book, in fact I had never heard of him,

Cant help with you feeling Nauseous as we are all different, no two people are alike.

As jillygirl suggests, read through the community pinned posts! 😀

My biggest issue has been insomnia but that has started getting better now and I think a big part of it is I have loads more energy now I have stopped smoking.

I hope the nausea eases for you soon... good luck :)

Yes I remember the first time years ago I had bad nightmares! My problem is that after I feel so well I start to get hyper. I can't rest and feel hyperactive, happy and we'll and end up feeling like I need something to calm me down..

Hello Agentparsnip, feeling awful is normal. Cold turkey is a roller coaster, so tighten your seat belt and scream. It does get better but it gets worse first. It's the storm before the calm. You can can do it , it just takes time and being kind to yourself. Good luck.
