I'm doing okay today and wow....that's on a Monday!! After some issues last week, I followed advice from several of you and I take my patch off before bed. Much improved sleep.
I randomly read blogs and feel guilty that I am using the patch. I had a one on one coach for 3 sessions before my quit date, and that is what we decided. But so many of you go cold turkey. I'm surprised at how much of a struggle I have had just getting thru the psych and emotional,while using the patch. I want to make some breaks with the habit and the behaviors before weaning off the chemical. But sometimes I worry that my quit doesn't have the same value because I am using the patch. so then I think, ok I will just rip this patch off and do it like many of you do. but then I don't because I do not want to lose this quit! So that is what I am thinking about today......Can I be proud and feel in control of my quit even tho I am using the patch?
