How are they giving up, going cold turkey or using something they could be having a side effect to such as the tablets or herbal remedies?
I quit for 4 months and never got to that stage and it does sound a bit extreme, is there something else going on you don't know about that she they could be using the quitting thing as a cover up or does she ever get periods when she is down and teary?

for a week he was supporting himself with the odd nicotene chewing gum, but came down with flu and from that point has had no gum or tabacco. i guess im wondering if they have suffered a minor breakdown (if there is such a thing) and giving up smoking is an unfortunate coincidence. he just doesnt seem to be able to cope with any pressure - he has gone back to work today, but phoned me with a very shaky voice saying he'd had to come home for a bit.
