have you thought about chantix....it's a new nonnicotine med. I heard it doubles your chances. I started it last week and the cravings have been bearable. dayone

John83, Please consult your doctor or pharmacist. NRT aids aren't for everybody and are not recommended for those with heart conditions or taking some types of medication. Danielle _______________________ The SSC Support Team

Hi John, welcome to SSC and congratulations on making a decision that will change your life. I agree with Danielle, please check with your Dr to see if the patch is okay for you. My Dr recommended the patch, I followed the directions for 10 weeks. All of us are different, and remember you have to want to quit. There is no magic pill but they can help. So stay positive, have a good attitude, stay determined, and stay strong, I know that you can do this. :) Sunshine [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/7/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 378 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 6,437 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1323 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 55 [B]Hrs:[/B] 12 [B]Mins:[/B] 46 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58
