right now, your boyfriend is going through withdrawl. this is VERY VERY NORMAL. he will be probably gaining a bit wait :/ and have mood swings. his body is rejecting not having what it craves, because the nicotine has tricked his brain into thinking he needs it. cigarettes are made to calm jittery nerves, but they are absolutely terrible for you. terrible. so look up on google "cons of smoking" and read all about it....because your boyfriend will probably be looking for a cigerette right now to calm those new jittery nerves of his. again, this is completely normal, and when you try to remind him not to smoke, he may get upset.....

basically, it is normal. goodluck! cheers!

Yes, it is completely normal. He's going through a phase called withdrawal where he experiences symptoms out of the norm after quitting something he's done routinely (i.e. smoking, alcohol, drugs, etc).

It is quite normal to see him having mood swings due to the withdrawal. I would just try to care for him as best as you can even though it may seem tough with him being hostile at times. Try to give him as much support as you can as it is no easy task to just quit smoking.
