About a month and a half ago I quit nicotine and workout supplements because I had a panic attack after a workout. I went to the emergency room and doctors a few times and they said everything was ok. I constantly struggle with being lightheaded, nervous, heart racing, headaches and sometimes nauseas. I have stopped living a normal life because of all the symptoms. Can I please get some advice?
Hello. I have never used nicotine replacement products but I used to smoke a long time ago. I started smoking at college when I was young because it was the in thing to do and cigarettes were cheap. In the year 2000 I was advised to quit but used will power alone and ended up on anti depressants, followed by psychosis because I have anxiety as well. I put on weight and was told to diet then ended up in the women's mental health unit after hyperventilating in town. Is there any chance that you used the patch as the same time as smoking because one of my neighbours did and was very sick.
I quit smoking 3 months ago..after smoking for about 14 years, half a pack to one pack a day. I quit because I am suffering with health anxiety. Since i have quit, i got headaches every single day for almost a month. I get dizziness, and pressure in and around ears and temples, hot and cold flashes sometimes and nausea.
Thank you for the reply! What are your symptoms of health anxiety? How do they get triggered or are they just naturally occurring symptoms?
