I have been cutting my cigarettes to one or two a day leading to my quit day. I am using a patch. I’m having horrible pain in what feels like my lower lungs. If I smoke it feels better?!? Today I quit. I’m having tons of anxiety over this pain. Any advise would be greatly appreciated
#1 If you are still smoking and using the patch at the same time you are doing it wrong. Are you using the recommended mg patch for the amount you smoked? That could make a difference. You may be getting too much nicotine. Anxiety that may come with quitting smoking. Learning deep breathing exercises can help to minimize it. I would suggest that you learn about the nicotine addiction ways to distract
