quit smoking asthma worse
I recently quit smoking…?

I have been smoking cigarettes for a long time and I recently quit because it was making my asthma worse (save it, I already know I shouldn’t be smoking with asthma). It’s been around 12 days and no cigarettes at all but I haven’t been able to keep food or drink down for a week now. Is this from quitting smoking or something else?

By the way, I am 23.

hi morgani

not going to lecture about smoking at all … think is super kewl your quitting at age 23!! good call..

actually about the food issue, wow for most us food tastes better, (the sense of smell helps).. in fact many of us actually put on a few “new quit pounds”.. till our metabolism stabilizes.. in fact in support community there is a saying “the weight can wait”…

you might notice i mentioned the support community , i am a member of Nicotine Anonymous, and attend meetings, both locally, and online.. should you choose to attend some meetings, you would be welcome, both to gain support, and ask questions.. however you decide to proceed good luck there is no wrong way to quit!!
