hi, im 17 and i quit smoking last month. previously id been smoking a few grams a day with my friends (so i figure perhaps half a gram to a gram for myself) for the past 2 years
i quit because i realized what it was doing to me. but its been a month and im still having problems
- most mornings i feel nausea, i never actually throw up i just gag sometimes and feel like c**p
- when i go out to a party, dinner, or anything social, i start to feel uncomfortable in the stomach. if i eat or drink alcohol i feel nausea again.. burping usually helps but sometimes im unable to burp and i just feel as though im going to vomit, but once again i only gag and have never thrown up
- sometimes i get numb hands or pins and needles (this sometimes happens when i go out drinking) and just feel really weak and strange
- i still cant sleep at night
ive been researching and it seems to be anxiety.. but im also paranoid now that it might be a stomach ulcer as well?
does anyone know how much longer this will go on, and if i can beat anxiety without medication? ive talked to some people who have quit before and theyve said it goes away after a few weeks.. but this past month has been hell on me
thanks in advance for any help and suggestions,
-mike

well i have only been clean 2 weeks now after about 4 years of blazing.
What you really need to ask your self is if you had anxiety problems before you started smoking. I was recently diagnosed with Generalized anxiety disorder and likely have one or two other similar disorders since its uncommon to have it alone.
I was always a bit uncomfortable around people before I started to smoke.
Smoking also contributed to my overall dismal feeling of anxiety.
I also found out shortness of breath (usually after i walk somewhere) i have at least 1-2 panic attacks a day. It is really scary i can get nothing done at all i am currently preparing for finals in college.
I only hope that i can get some help soon.
As far as your stomach ulcer goes do some reasearch see a doctor and get treatment. That stuffs painful.
good luck man.
Yeah im going to try to get a perscription to something. I am taking herbal supplements but it doesnt do much.
I also think im depressed a little bit yet i've hidden behind ganj for so long
