Everybody is different. Symptoms vary from person to person.

However, you are very lucky if you have no symptoms.

Usually everybody has some sort of detox.

When I quit, I got a horrible cough and stuffy head for about 2 weeks.

I would cough up phlem and blowing my nose would result in a very thick substance that did not look normal.

At first, I thought I was sick, but when nobody in my family got sick (which is what usually happens, either the wife or kids) I knew it was something else.

It eventually went away, but it is a very stressful time.

Some say that the phlem is actually the cilia (small hair like follicles in your lungs) regenerating. As they regenerate, they start to get rid of all the gunk you had in you from smoking.

I was a low grade (is that possible?) smoker for about 10 years. Towards the end I was at about 1.5 packs a week. So you see, I was not a heavy duty multiple pack a day smoker, but it was still about a month before I started feeling normal again.

I have heard of heavy duty smokers taking up to 6 months or more to start to get back to normal.

It probably isn't that uncommon. My father has tried to quit many times, and he usually gets depressed/grouchy.
