Discuss different approaches to quitting, including medication
I don't think the addiction ever passes. Gum has worked for me but two years later, I had the biggest crave ever and had JUSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSST ONE> Wound up a full fledged smoker once again and now I'm on oxygen. It's not too late to start over and Nicorette is for me--- the coated kind. I lke the crunch. Silly, but true.
Soooo in 1980 something I gave up cigs thanks to an at work cessation class, lots of support there. Nixorettte gum at that time was a prescription and thats what I used. It worked along with visual and physical aids. Not sure how many are still non smokers from that class now ( 2019 ) I know I have stayed cig smoke free since, and cannot stand the smell. Buttttttt, I started smoking swisher sweet cigarillos in 1989 just on ( ha so I thought ) at lunch break, have continued on and off since then, now In day 43 of a nother episode of " Cold Turkey " we'll label this one a birthday gift to my bod !
Great job...keep the quit going...~ Colleen
