New quitters…
… should consider getting a complete physical including a trip to the
dentist. Smoking, especially long term smoking, can mask a number of
physical issues that need to be dealt with. Over/under active thyroid is
one that’s common in women and can present itself as fluctuations in weight
and the symptoms of depression. Depression and gum disease are 2 others
that can affect anyone. Setting up appointments and getting yourself
checked out is simply intelligent quit management.
I’m usually not one for ‘just do it’, but in this
area, please… just do it.
