Smoking withdrawal is also sometimes called as nicotine withdrawal. But many people draw a fair distinction between both. Smoking withdrawal refers to symptoms caused by quitting smoking. Even if a person quits smoking, nicotine can still be consumed in the form of nicotine chewing gums, nicotine patches etc. On the other hand, nicotine withdrawal refers to symptoms caused by nicotine cessation where nicotine is not consumed in any form.

Smoking withdrawal refers to a gamut of symptoms like anxiety, irritability, insomnia, attention deficit, dizziness, lack of concentration, depression, fatigue and constipation. Physical withdrawal from nicotine can cause discomfort to the quitter. Smoking cessation is often called as "quitters flu" because nicotine withdrawal symptoms sometimes look like flu symptoms. Some of the nicotine withdrawal symptoms include cravings for smoking, insomnia, touchy, fatigue, headache, cough, stomach pain irritable, sore throat, dry mouth, sore tongue, tightness in the chest and much more. With professional help , those who are willing to quit smoking can easily do it.
