2. my husband used the patch and gum last time he quit

Thu Jul 5, 2012, 10:47 PM

Jul 2012

he was quit for close to three months but picked it back up. i blame myself a bit for that because i continued to smoke and i know that made it harder.

i know some people like the e-cigarettes, the gum did get me across the atlantic a couple of times.

du has a smoking cessation group. not very active, but there might be some helpful information.

i know i have to quit, but i am not ready yet. it's a ritual, something you can concentrate on when you can't concentrate on anything, something to help get your head back on straight.

good luck to you
