Hi Molendie! Welcome back on the wagon - the view's pretty good from up here! One day at a time - that's all we have to do.

Chin up!! You can do this!!!

Well Im just about to a full 3 days now but im on the patch. In the past when I have quit, I have done so cold turkey and had moderate success but would always fall. This latest attempt I suffered pretty crazy withdrawls. So i opted for some patches. im not wasting my money on the patch steps and what not, ill just use em less and less till this box is empty. Hopefully that will put me in a better place. Thank God for this board and you people. Falling back to cigarettes has been a good reminder as to why im sober from everything else still.

Well done, Molendie!

The patch has been very helpful for me.

Hi, Molendie!

Sorry I missed this the other day.
But, I'm REALLY glad you've joined us in the smoke free zone!

I've been quit now for just over 5 months. I smoked for 36 years and had multiple attempts at quitting. I honestly thought I was a hopeless case.
But, I wasn't.
And I learned that behavioral change is the key.
I used the patch, gum, zyban, and group meetings to help me. There's nothing wrong with getting the support we need -- we are saving our lives here, remember?
Anyway, I have to take it one day at a time, doing the next right thing, choice after choice. That's how I stay quit.
Be well, and be sure to check in daily. It helps to be accountable too!

Shalom!
