I stopped smoking 6 days ago after smoking on and off for 20 years, I feel now I am ready to stop!
Today my head is very light headed and I feel dizzy, is this a common withdraw symptom? I also feel a little short on breath which never happened before

Yes, not everyone eperiences the same symptoms of withdraw and if  you are concerned then you definately need to be seen by a doctor. Personally, the anxiety of quitting caused me some of the same symptoms you are experiencing. Drink lots of fruit juice and if you have been off two 6 days you are already clean of nicotine, . Deep breaths help you get past a crave and when ever you feel short of breath deep breathe as well. Since your not smoking you are not inhaling deeply like you were when smoking. Congrats and good luc
