Cigarette Smoking Withdrawal
I gave up smoking smoking 3 days ago. I am having severe brain fogs and fatigue, through out the day. I have a busy work schedule also. I am trying to cope up by drinking black coffee and plain water. Should i discontinue black coffee and move to tea? Any other suggestion would be helpful to. Please note i do not want to start nicotine replacement therapy.

Caffeinated drinks such as coffee, tea, cola above 6 such drinks would make you irritable, anxious and will negatively affect your performance. Drinking plain water would be the better choice of drink you could have. Since smoking is a habit you should look to distract your mind from the urges which mainly occurs when you concentrate on it, chewing gum, eating food, exercises and de-stress techniques(deep breathing, yoga) has been noted to help with curbing the urges and craving.
