Hi all
well i am moving rooms tomorrow-into month 4, i decided to come off the nicotine gum last week, i found it similar stopping smoking all over again, however i cant work out if it was psychological or physical withdrawls, i was taking 6x 4mg gums every day, so i think it was withdrawls!!
a friend of mine told me to use 'airwave' gum and that helped-i know 'odd'
i truely feel like a 'non smoker' now, and have very few 'faint' cravings-alot less than when i was on the gum, i found the gum was extending my cravings rather than preventing them, however gum did have its place in the early days.
my sister has stopped smoking for 3 years and is still taking gum and relys heavily on it-i didnt want to be like that.:confused:
My other sister is stopping smoking mid february and is joining the forum-please make her welcome-which im sure you will!!!
i feel so much better-particularly today as my netball team won the cup today-we thrashed them!!! way-heyyyyyy!!!
When I came off lozenges I was using about 5 X 1mg ones a day, and found it a bit awkward and weird but not too bad.
That said I was only taking in about 5mg a day as opposed to 24mg.
So I suspect that it was withdrawal!
