For 50 years I have been a smoker. I tried the gum, the patch, hypnosis and anything I could find. Nothing solved the problem. The problem is that the addiction remains. Go off the patch, and you are usually back to square one.
Statistics reveal that only a small percentage are able to quit with only the patch ot gum.
One gradually builds the addiction. If you want to watch, it shows exactly how many minutes until your next cigarette. Each new day the software will reduce your allotted cigarettes by only one each day. Of course you could. The software is only about 45k.
