Just a question, am using patch, has any one managed to quit using this form of nrt?

Am on step one 21 mg but take off around 9 as the vivid dreams are terrible for me. Am I fooling my self, as it seems the champix and e cig seem to have more success . Thanks

I did! (or, at least, am still going strong at the end of 3 months). I used 21mg patches (and the occasional supplemental lozenge) for the first 5 weeks and then went CT.

There's loads of regulars on the forum who successfully quit using patches (including penthouse residents) so there's plenty of success stories.

As has been said before and will be again, there is no 'right way' of doing it. I don't know what the statistics are but I suspect it's probably more or less a dead heat in terms of means/methods v successful quit.

So I don't think you're fooling yourself Tracey, and if the patches are working for you (and I always took mine off at night to avoid the dreams) then you stick with them (no pun intended!)

Well done, well done, well done

I'm figuring it's too early as yet to question the "how", most important is to get the momentum up and just keep on going, so just you be sure and do that - keep on quitting

Really well done Tracey. Just keep doing whatever you're doing - what

matters is what works for you - and you are doing great. :) bb x

Hi Tracey,

I'm following the instructions.

I did:

* 6 weeks on 'Step 1'

* 2 weeks on 'Step 2'

...and now I'm on 'Step 3' for 2 weeks.

After that, I'm on my own

They're certainly helpful for me. And yep, I'm getting vivid dreams too :eek:

But honestly, it's the folks in this forum who have made the difference.

You're doing GREAT!!

Steve
