Hello I am new here and am back again after being quit for 3 days and then smoking for 3 days. I absolutely hate being chained to smoking! I do not want to smoke so I am going to try again. I'm not giving up either! I had used the patch but now am using the gum only. I think it helps snap the cravings and eases my irritability. I don't want to get addicted to gum either but at this point my focus is on not smoking just for today. I'm glad to have found this site!!!!!!
