Evening All
Have been lurking here and on other sites since about day 1 - started off using some old 2mg chewing gum (failed previous attempts - can think of at least 3) and chewed my way through around 20 pieces before deciding to try going it alone (bad visit to GP and awful visit with cessation nurse, hope to criminy no one was relying on her for help) - didn't want to extend my withdrawal any longer than necessary.
Apparently I didn't say much to people before this quit, think it was because it wasn't my first but touch wood; I'm actually feeling a lot more confident this time. Never take another puff - and finally acknowledging that I never can or I will be back right where I started.
Have tried 24hr patch, couldn't sleep
16hr patch, started smoking again
Inhalator - started smoking again
4mg chewing gum - started smoking again
2mg chewing gum - started smoking again
Now using cold turkey and seems to've worked - though I imagine some purists would debate that!
So here's to the rest of today and never take another puff.
