Symptoms of nicotine withdrawal
Nicotine is a highly addictive substance. When people choose to quit vaping, it is not uncommon to experience severe nicotine withdrawals.
Going cold turkey and abruptly eliminating nicotine from your body can cause significant mental and physical changes, making it difficult for people to regulate their emotions during this time of transition.
Although the symptoms associated with nicotine withdrawal may be unpleasant, they are only temporary. Prescription treatments are often an effective way to ease withdrawal symptoms.
Symptoms of nicotine withdrawal may include:
- Cravings to start vaping again
- Distractibility
- Feeling restless or nervous
- Poor sleep
- Possible weight gain
- Inability to regulate emotions

How nicotine affects the body
When nicotine acts as a stimulant within the body, it restricts blood flow causing problems within the circulatory system among both men and women.
Restricted blood flow and increased blood pressure can cause sexual and reproductive problems, such as an increased likelihood of complications during childbirth or erectile dysfunction in men.
