It’s been six hours since I smoked. Used to smoke 40 a day. Have two nicotine patches on.

Fingers crossed that you can do it.

I found nicotine lozenges the best though. But I just vape now.

I quit that way with the patches :slight_smile: i found it very easy, it did irritate my skin a bit though so i put them on chest, buttocks, legs too, and it was ok, hope you make it,

If you can go a week i’d be impressed, a month even better, i have been clean from it for over 10 yrs now :slight_smile:

Awesome!

I quit smoking about 8 years ago after many, many failures. After 4 years I picked vaping up because I enjoy nicotine, but not the stench or side effects of cigs.

It’s hard to do, especially cold turkey. But, that’s the method tgat worked for me after I had switched to rolling my own for a couple years.

Did you use two nicotine patches?

Be careful wearing more than one patch at a time.

i used one high strength for about 1month- 6weeks then lowered the strength and then stopped if i remember right.
was a long time ago but the chemist/pharmacist can help you with that if you can ask them,

i smoked about 15-20 a day

I smoke 40 a day

i think you should speak to a chemist, they can advise you on the strength you need and how to cut down,

I liked using them bc the took my breath test and i could prove that i hadnt been cheating, felt good seeing those clear scores, idk if they still do that but they monitored me and i had to attend an appointment for a check up a few times :slight_smile:
