Brent, Which is better... going for a swim or taking a nice run? I'm an avid swimmer and I always have been (just look at my name) and I work with a bunch of people who run several miles a day, however I have NEVER debated with them which is better because I understand that runners like to run and swimmers (like me) like to swim. For me, if the only exercise I could get was to run, I wouldn't exercise. I HATE running and just plain wouldn't do it. However, I LOVE to swim and am glad that that's an option for me. Both running and swimming are exercise, so either way, it's STILL a good thing! Quitting is quitting is quitting. In my opinion, whatever way you do it is the perfect way for you as long as you are doing it. I personally went cold turkey but I would never tell someone that they should do that because that's what worked for me. If a runner told me that I should quit swimming and run 5 miles a day every day, I'd probably make some very snide comment, give them a horribly dirty look and then jump in the pool for my daily (or twice weekly as it has been lately) swim. The way you do it isn't important... the end result is all that's important. Eventually, all people who use NRT will hopefully go cold turkey at some point in time and that's all that matters. If the NRT helped them to quit, then that's great! I think I'll go take a swim now! :) Crave the Quit!

Brent, So how do you answer the proverbial race between the tortoise and the hare? Slow and stead won that race if I recall. :p Just pickin' on you my good man. :) For me, I avoid icy water like the plague! Quitting is as individual as our fingerprints. Sure, there are some common characteristics, but everyone does it their own way. That is the beauty of this site.. so many different people, each quitting their own way, yet finding support in a common format. That's my 2 cents worth.. or 2 pence to you!

Interesting topic, Brent. I quit using Wellbutrin XL (Zyban) for the first month. I really didn't like taking it (messes with brain chemistry), and I had some disturbing experiences that I attribute to the drug. They are why I stopped using it after a month instead of using the prescription up. Knowing what I now know, if I had to do it over I would go cold turkey. But at the time I didn't know these things and felt I needed the drug to be successful. It got me started, so it did its job. NRT was never an option for me because it seemed too much like the methdone program for heroin addicts; just trading delivery systems. I was concerned that if I went that route I might never give up the NRT. I had to rip my plaster off all at once. :gasp: Shevie [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/23/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 246 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 4,932 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $934.8 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 45 [B]Hrs:[/B] 23 [B]Mins:[/B] 22 [B]Seconds:[/B] 58

As I am still ON the patch, I cannot presume what will happen when I one day reach the point where it is time for me to run around here nekkid... However, I believe that I know myself well enough now to know that smoking has been integrated in every aspect of my life. I would constantly be aware of the next time I could have a cigarette, and if I knew I couldn�t have one for a long time, I would �stock up� by smoking 2 or 3 in a row!! I feel that I need to change every little aspect of my life, and become comfortable without CIGARETTES before I can kick the nicotine addiction. My thought process is this: if I want a cigarette this badly NOW, even though I am still getting nicotine via the patch, how can I possibly do both at the same time? I�m addicted to more than just nicotine...I have to change my whole way of life. From which train I take in the morning, to not drinking as much alcohol, to dealing with everyday conflict in a positive way. I quit cold-turkey for a just over a week back in September when I went down to Dominican with my b/f and two non-smoking friends. As soon as I came back and got back into my regular routine, I found I couldn�t (wouldn�t?) fight the cravings brought on by everyday routine. Long-winded, but that�s my opinion about the patch. I applaud all of you who can go cold-turkey, but as I said, I feel I know myself well enough to know how to go about this the right way for me. It�s working so far!! ;p :) ;) :8|: Lucy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 12/23/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 32 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 815 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $272 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 2 [B]Hrs:[/B] 6 [B]Mins:[/B] 40 [B]Seconds:[/B] 17

Patch user here...simply because it fit my lifestyle best. As it's been said here a thousand times... "Whatever it takes, just don't smoke" Sooner or later, we're all cold turkey :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 2/2/2005 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 357 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 7,158 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1274.49 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 37 [B]Hrs:[/B] 21 [B]Mins:[/B] 35 [B]Seconds:[/B] 57

This is a subject that will always promote strong feeling. This is a personal decision , and there will always be arguments 'for' and 'against' for this particular topic. I used NRT (patches), my quit is strong and I have NEVER EVER faltered. However, I know of many people on this site that chose to do this Cold Turkey, and their quit is just as strong! Whatever method anyone chooses can ONLY be successful IF the determination to succeed is there!

Brent....I think that your attitude toward quitting changed....and THAT is what makes the difference....no matter WHAT method you choose. It's when you decide you want to quit more than you want to smoke...... I used the patches and thought they helped me a 'lot'....I was the run out of cigs go into a total panic type person. The patches took the "edge" off. The quit has to be in your head so you can CONTROL what you do. katy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 1/4/2002 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1482 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 59,293 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $8151 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 193 [B]Hrs:[/B] 8 [B]Mins:[/B] 21 [B]Seconds:[/B] 11
