It's been a while since I stopped smoking socially, but I took two cigs a while ago. Right after I went through my second stick, I felt so nauseous and started sweating profusely. My head still hurts very much right now and I think I'm going to throw up or pass out at any minute. Why is this? How do I stop it? Please give me useful answers because I have to get over this as soon as possible and go back to working on my papers.

Thats not uncommon. Many new smokers experience nausea. It's because your body isn't used to the nicotine (as well as the many other harmful substances in ciggarettes). For further prevention, I would quit while your ahead and give up smoking completely.

Same thing happened to me when i started smoking.
Go to the girls bathroom, the handicap stall, drink some COLD COLD water. Than run your hand under the faucet, shake it off a bit, and put your cold hand on the back of your neck.
You can also just go sit in the stall for a little bit, close your eyes, lean back and rub your tummy, it will feel better.
And dont worry about what these people say about smoking, you have free will right? you know what its going to do to you right? Than do what you want. I am a smoker, and i would advise you to stay away, if youre not addicted, the feeling is pretty terrible, i would have liked to avoid it better, but than again, you have free will!
Feel better!

it's because you hadn't smoked in a while, and then those two cigs reintroduced the toxic chemicals into your body. niccotien is addictive, just like heroin or crack, and if someone has stopped using those for a while, and they do it again, they also get sick. that's what i understand from it.....but really the only thing you can do to prevent it is to not smoke them at all.

It's the nicotine.......STOP while you can....It's a very very bad habit to quit once you start. Drink a Sprite or 7-up with crackers to settle your stomach.

your body is trying to tell you that smoking is bad for you.. listen to your body.. quit smoking and enjoy being healthy..
