Given his bipolar diagnosis, is quitting cold turkey really the best idea? Nicotine withdrawl effects everyone in varying degrees and depends somewhat upon how much smoked and for how long. Xanax certainly couldn't hurt, but it takes about 7 days for the withdrawl to end. Once that week has passed, it's just a matter of managing the cravings. As far as the stomach complaints, I have never heard of anyone I know experiencing this, but it could be from the anxiety of trying to quit or simply a side effect of a decreasing nicotine blood level.
I wish you both the best of luck, but if it continues, he should try the lozenges, patches, or gum; and, touching base with a doctor certainly couldn't hurt.
