Hi Handel
Congrats on joining the quit club!! You can do this if you arm yourself with a few strategies. The nicotine spray is fantastic. Ive been using it and found it really helpful. Mint lollies also worked for me. Read lots about quitting including posts on this forum. Keep busy at the beginning and try to avoid your triggers. If that is being around other smokers try to avoid. If its after meals set up another routine for that time like sipping a hot drink. Walks when intense cravings hit is a good one. Remember cravings come and go so if you distract yourself during them and use your spray you can overcome. Good luck and keep in touch.

Welcome and congrats on getting started. 

I am glad you are using a NRT to help you to quit smoking. What else have you learned from your past quit attempts?

Hi GaryFromPA,
 Welcome to the Stop Smoking Center. Congratulations on deciding to quit for good this time. The patch can be a big help to some smokers. I used it to quit too. How are you doing so far?
Stay strong.

I've tried to quit cold turkey (unsuccessfully) in the past.  This time, I'm using the patch.  I am using the Nicoderm patch.  I have no health issues, but I do have a strong desire to conquer the smoking beast once and for all.   I'm just tired of living my life around ciggies!  I feel as though they have been controlling me.
