Try drinking lots of water to help clean your system out of those poisons you've been inhaling. You can also try the deep breathing exercise. Breath in slowly through your nose, hold for a few seconds and exhale slowly through your mouth. Do this 4 or 5 times and it might help to relieve the headache. Physical activity may also help. Go for walks, go to a gym and workout, go for a swim. Depending on how long and how many you smoked, it could also be that your brain is getting too much oxygen now. It's just not used to it, and needs time to adjust. Have you seen a doctor about your headaches? Keep us posted on your progress okay?Quit Meter
