My body is telling my mind I can't breathe. That I need a cigarette to breathe. Has anyone else experienced this? It's driving me nuts. And honestly, it's a little scary. I take deep breaths and tell my mind it's my body having another one of it's childish fits for taking away the cigarettes. This morning it was exceptionally hard. This is day five.
I have some really cool friends... two in particular. They make sure my computer is running. One of them bought my neon colored straws to chew on and a bag of pretzels. One bought me two bags of pretzels. So I think I'm stocked on pretzels... and straws.
I appreciate everyone's help and advice. And the blogs!
I do need to know about this breathing thing though. Are there other things I could be doing?
Thank you,\

Hi zaxa11 many have breathing problems after quitting smoking/vaping, etc., it seems we need to learn to breath the right way again...after all our breathing was basically inhaling. Have you tried the “breathing exercises” suggested...also, to read others who had breathing issues when they first quit, go to the magnifier and type in “breathing after quitting” and read the posts. Lastly, we are not medical Doctors, if it really doesn’t seem right, call your Doctor, better to be safe then sorry...hope this helped you out...~ Colleen
