4 months today, but still need NRT aids

Hi, nmc. Congratulations on 4 months smoke-free. That is totally awesome. I'm tossing this idea out for whatever it is worth. The continued use of the NRTs may be contributing to your cravings. You have a craving for nicotine, you use the NRT, craving is satisfied, positive reenforcement has occurred. Behaviors that are rewarded are repeated. That said, you are not smoking which is the [u]only[/u] thing that is truly important. Everything in it's own time, my friend. Keep up the great quit, nmc. We're might proud of you. :) Wishing you the Merriest of Christmases and the Happiest of New Years!
