I was a full time smoker from age 14 until I was 37. I used nicotine tablets to get off the cigarettes, and was completely nicotine free for over a year. I somehow got it into my head that I wanted to smoke again, but I knew I didn’t really want to… so I got the tablets and used them non-stop. I have been using the 4 mg tablets all day everyday for a long time now. I am on vacation from work this week, so I’m getting off the tablets. 3 days with no nicotine now. I’m very foggy and tired. Headaches.
The reason I’m writing this post is because I want to read something encouraging- but most of the help available is directly related to quitting tobacco. A lot of the quit literature promotes using an NRT- which is awesome- that’s what helped me quit the cigarettes, but now I personally need help with staying away from the NRTs. I can’t be the only one who has struggled with this, right?
