Do the patch... it helps a lot!

tried without it last week (Wed, Thur and Friday CLEAN), but as soon as i hit the weekend (and the tequila) i smoked the nearly a pack...

but now i'm using the patch... and it really helps!!!!

Haven't smoked today nor yesterday (doja is a different story though)...

I hate that I smoke (but kinda love it though) and just wanted to inform some of you fellow smokers out there, that it works!

I'll update you after this weekend though (and more tequila).

Gum


Lots and lots of gum...

Good luck... I quit "cold turkey" ten years ago.

I just had to give up drinking for a year and find new friends who did not party.

It was well worth it, though.

I found luck with the gum. (almost 5 smokeless months!) It really helped me because it tied a physical act to the nicotine experience, much like smoking cigs. (if you're like me, and find comfort in the very act of smoking.)

Don't worry about cheating either. I started with a gum and cigarette combo (gum during the morning through the end of the workday, and then a cigarette or 5 when I got home in the evening.) Eventually I took them as one in the same, and slowly began phasing the cigarettes out compeltely. After that, I stayed on the gum for a few months (cause that shits addictive too!) until I was finally tired of paying $20 a week on gum.

Overall, props to you. I was a smoker for 12+ years, and quitting has made me feel totally different in a very good way.

[the biggest thing to stress is not to get down on yourself for cheating/slipping... it WILL happen.]

*EDIT* [in case it wasn't clear, gum=nicotine gum.]

What?

My smoking days are between Thursday evenings or Fridays til like Monday night. The other thing is, I can't smoke a cig w/o having a piece of gum or a mint in my mouth. If I try smoking just the cig and nothing in my mouth, I'll get rid of the cig quick! Now if I can only stay away from other things that make me want to smoke, then I'm OK.

Smoke more ganja!!

hahaha.... then I want to eat more!

I tried the patch too and it works, that and vegging out in front of my 55 plama inch TV i sold last year playing call of duty for 8 hours..

It does work. The only downside is I didnt know what to do since I wasnt needing a fix everynow and then from a smoke.

I actually ended up fidgeting alot.
