Then a while later I got the patch. I quit smoking for a few months, but the craving never went away, and one day at a party I just started smoking again. Now I'm up to almost two packs a day again. I know it's really difficult to get rid of the craving to smoke. Also, in situations like a party, it can be hard because other people are smoking and you remember what it was like.
Most people find it takes several tries to quit smoking.
I'm glad you're willing to try again. Well, the doctor is always telling me how my ulcer is irritated by smoking and that it increases the chance of heart disease. I'm even taking pills to cut down my cholesterol. Lucky my insurance pays for it because they didn't pay for the patches. First I'd like to know a little more about your present health and medications, to see if the new therapy would be right for you.
