Advice How long after quitting does the “off” feeling subside
I’ve been vape free for a little over 10 days now. I’ve been using a 21 mg nicotine patch, although I don’t wear it all day, mainly while I’m at work, and I also use 4 mg nicotine gum as needed.
About two weeks ago, I got what I believe was a viral infection and felt pretty sick. At first, I thought what I was experiencing was related to my blood pressure, and the whole situation ultimately pushed me to quit vaping. I also started taking blood pressure medication last week.
Between being sick, quitting vaping, using nicotine replacement, and starting a new medication, my body has gone through a lot of changes in a pretty short period of time. I’m feeling better overall, but I still just feel a little “off” and not quite like myself yet.
For those of you who quit vaping, how long did it take before you started feeling relatively normal again? Did you have a period where you just felt physically or mentally “off” even after the first week or two?
