No cigs for 3 days

So quit smoking when I decided to quit drinking. Might as well kill 2 birds with one stone since I was to sick to smoke. I’m so emotional though and angry. Is this normal or is it just the come down from alcohol or both? I can’t stop stressing I don’t even wanna smoke but my body does :sob::sob::sob:

It absolutely is normal to feel the way ur feeling. I quit smoking 14 years ago but could have never quit smoking and doing drugs at the same time. Some people do quit everything all at once but quitting one of those things alone is enough to cause massive irritability and intense emotion. Im proud of u for putting in the hard work. Ur body is going thru withdrawal from numerous substances so ull probably feel pretty irritable for a bit.

Thank you. I figured since I didn’t smoke for 2 days why not just keep going… but I’m sure going through it now lol. How long do you think I will feel like this ?

Its hard to say. I think it varies for everyone. I quit smoking long before i quit doing drugs. And i did use the nicorette patches and gum which helped ALOT. To be honest, i dont think i couldve quit cold turkey like u are doing. So i give u props for that. Have u thought of maybe using stop making aids to help?

Thanks means a lot. And I was thinking about maybe the nicotine gum but I don’t really want to depend on anything if it’s going to make it harder to wing.

Definitely easier too breathe. I used to wake up coughing in the middle of the night for like an hour if I smoked to many.
