Girl, you know i've been there! IT'S ALL IN THE MIND!!! Think positive, think as a non-smoker and DO NOT light it up. If you feel yourself heading that way, go back to the 14mg. After my slip I put the 7 back on and it just didn't cut it, so I am back on 14. I ordered 10 and 5mg off of the internet (not sold in US)and hope they come in soon (Nicotrol) I figure a gentle taper (14, 10, 7, 5) might do the trick. HOWEVER...that's just me justifying my slip by blaming the drop in the patch. In the back of my mind I KNOW it was me in a weak moment making a bad decision. Hubby is afraid the patch is my security blanket. He has noticed that whenever I get upset I rub it. I'm having a hard time with the "one day at a time" and have to banish the reoccurring thought that I am never going to smoke again and I am never going to be happy again because "something" is missing. Come on, we can do this! I know we can!! Positive thoughts, deep breaths, ... Hey, let's go for a walk! :)
