I am trying to quit smoking. I would love to do it "cold turkey" but just do not have the will power it seems. I have cut back on my smoking, but not enough to just walk away from it. I am wondering what could help me quit other than Chantix or any meds. I cannot get into the dr this week for anything, so I can't start any meds. If anyone has any ideas, please help. I have tried the "patch" and just could never get them to stay in place, so it didn't work. And I was told not to duct tape them in place for some reason. I thought it would help, but was told not to. Any and all suggestions are appreciated!
Suggestion:
Not sure where you placed the patch, but I put them on my butt cheek, seemed to stay just fine. You might try cleaning the area with rubbing alcohol before applying the patch.
I used coffee stirring straws to chew on and a lot of spearmint gum. (I smoked menthol's)
It does take will power and the mind set that you DO want to quit.
Keep trying, never give up and you will succeed.
