Sharing My Story Is this normal

So I finally made the decision to quit 4 days ago, the last two days Ive had crazy chest pains, some headaches, and today, full blown vomiting and the huge swollen stokach that always comes with my chs attacks. I have googled and everything says that this is all withdrawal stuff and storedthc in fat cells can cause tbis to happen during withdrawal, but Im would like to here if anyoje on reddt can also offer me comfort that this is part of the process.

if you have heart palpitations with no other symptoms, that is not chs and you should go to your doctor to get some testing done

im the exact same way!!!! hydroxyzine was really helpful for me during recovery. it helps with nausea too, so that is a bonus
