What to expect: Withdrawal is your body adjusting to not having nicotine. This can be uncomfortable. You might not feel like yourself and you might feel down during this time.
Nicotine withdrawal is not dangerous, but you may want to talk to your health care provider about using nicotine replacement therapy (NRT), like the gum or the patch, to help manage withdrawal.
What to do: Make time for activities that make you feel happy or relaxed to get through the first days of quitting.
