Answers:
Have you ever seen the commercial for Ruffles potato chips!? "You can't eat just one" !.!.!.or something like that!.!.!.

Same for cigarettes!. Do you really think you can have JUST 1!? Not likely!. Besides, if you're using a patch you really shouldn't have a cigarette for the risk of a nicotine overdose!. The first 3 days will be the hardest, after that you should be on your way to a smoke free life!.

Try the gum!.!.!.it's MUCH better than it used to taste!. Also, get some suckers, hard candy and regular bubble gum!. Keeping your mouth busy with those might help for the physical craving you are having!.

GOOD LUCK!!!! Smoking is a horrible habbit and SO addictive it's scary!

I've tried the patches but by evening I'm craving a cigarette like crazy!. Certain situations warrant a cigarette!.!.!.with that first cup of coffee, after a meal, having a glass of wine and will power gives out!. Have started going outside to have one and that seems to have helped some especially when I've been trying to get that stinky smoke smell out of my house!. Problem is I enjoy them even tho I know it's bad for me!. There's gotta be a way but I don't know it!. Can't' use the gum as I have dentures and it sticks to them!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I had been smoking 1 pack of 25 cigarettes a day !.!.never could even slow down !.!.people around me would tell me to light up because they couldn't stand me !.!.I smoked for over 20 years !.!.even when I was pregnant (which I know wasn't the best thing to do) anyway !.!.a little over 7 years ago I decided to get the nicotine patches cause I couldn't get rid of a bad cold !.!.I started the patches in the middle of the week and didn't have a smoke till the weekend !.!.I just couldn't stand it anymore so I took the patch off and smoked 1 !.!.I took the time to enjoy it knowing it was my last one !.!.i put the patch back on afterwards and that was it !.!.I have tried twice to smoke a cigarette in the past 7 years and each time they made me so sick !.!.it was enough to convince me not to try again !.!.so I can assure you that there are some success stories about people who have used the patches !.!.good luck and don't give up :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Toothpicks
Get a box of toothpicks and make them your smokes for awhile!.
Nothing worked for me!.
You have to want to quit for good!.
When I did there was no turning back!.

Save the money on patches and pills!
Think of all the money you will save from quitting and add it up!.When you get to that point in time!.!.buy yourself a nice gift : )

Smoking is for dummies!.
You can still be cool and not smoke!.
Its just stupid!.
QUIT!!
You Can Do it!Www@Answer-Health@Com

Hey!
okay first i just want to say that
you will do it!!!!!
my father who has now been
smoke free for 8 years used the same
patch and although it was hard he kept faith
and my family and i also offered support!.
I think what kept him going was the fact that
he didn't want to die before he could see his
kids grow up!. Anyways he also chewed gum
to keep his mouth busy at work!. Another thing
that i believed to keep his mind of things was
his art!.!.he has always enjoyed drawing and
he did it a lot more during this time!.!.
so the best i can tell you for advice would be
keep busy!. and remember that you get one life to
live it's not worth throwing it away!
Also ask your family for support<3!
GOODLUCK
and believe in yourself!.!.trust me
it is worth it in the end<333!!!!
