Nicotine Patches Make Me Feel Sick?

Hi all!

This is my third attempt at quitting smoking. I’ve been smoking for 15 years. My last attempt lasted three months before a stressful incident. At that time, I used the patches to quit. I had the 21mg patches and after a couple of days I felt really nauseous and light headed so I stopped using them and it went away. I smoked 15 cigarettes a day.
This time around, I’ve started out with the 14mg and it’s day 3. The first few days they really help to calm my brain and make me feel less agitated. And towards the end of the day today, I feel so nauseous and light headed again. What gives? Cold turkey hasn’t worked for me and I don’t want this to deter me from moving forward.

Japanese Knotweed

I’m in a rental house and just moved in January. Noticed this on the right side of the front of the house close to the neighbours perimeter. Notified my landlord but she didn’t seem too concerned but I’m also not sure if she knows how serious it is - I said I didn’t want to try and treat it without speaking to her and she just gave me the okay to do whatever. I’ve seen three patches like the photo and a handful of other small shoots. Even though I don’t own, it’s still my home but I don’t want to invest too much at the same time. Would digging this up since it’s small really be that ineffective? If I were to purchase a herbicide, it’d just be from Home Depot but also don’t know how effective that would be. Thank you!
