Congrats on quitting!!!!!! |
I used the patch about a dozen times before I finally quit. I was afraid of it too but I finally realized that cigarettes with all of the tar and god knows what other additives are a far greater health risk than the patch. They also cost about the same per day depending on how much you smoke. The patch just took my cigarette craving down from a 10 to like a 3 or 4, much more managable.
The research shows that the more times you try the more likely you are to successfully quit. So just keep trying.
