I have not smoked any tobacco in over four months and stopped using any nicotine gum too. I am glad that I have been successful in stopping all nicotine addiction. A good Christmas present for myself.
Well done! Cigarettes are sneaky. It can take up to a year to be in the clear. Keep some gum nearby just in case.
I’m finally tapering off the patch. It sucks. I keep waking up at 6am. I just want to be off the damn patch. I am on the 7mg patch and I take it off before bed, I will stop it on Thursday and then endure withdrawals which last about 48 hours.
But my heart and blood pressure should be a lot better once I stop.
Nicotine is as addictive as heroin- fact.
Good to be free!

I am stopping smoking AGAIN tomorrow…this is about my 20th quit. I just can’t give up. I hate smoking and all it has to offer. I wish I was stronger. I don’t know what will happen tomorrow morning when I wake up without cigarettes. For those that pray please pray that I will give up the ghost tomorrow?
