💡 KEY TAKEAWAY: Nicotine doesn’t just affect when you fall asleep—it destroys HOW you sleep. Deep sleep and REM cycles get fragmented, leaving your brain unable to recover. The result? Brain fog, memory problems, emotional instability, and chronic exhaustion.
But your brain CAN heal. Sleep quality can recover in 2-4 weeks after cutting nicotine before bed.
