Yes I hear you on the patch thing. I wasted too much on taking off patches to smoke. Cold turkey was what only worked for me. As they say around here whatever works just do it.... Ron

And believe me, this is truly a success for me. Every time I tried to quit, I'd take off the patch at home and smoke. Hello? What was the point???? Now, I am 16 days smoke-free!
