jcd11235 0 #26 July 24, 2009 Quote Quote Since the urge to smoke is strongest when waking up, after eating, and after sex, the answer is obvious. Stop sleeping, eating, and having sex, and you'll stop getting the urge to smoke. You left out drinking. I have used everything at one time or another. Patch, gum, both pills, what works the best for me is the Nicotrol inhaler. It helps the craving a little and is also unpleasant, not as unpleasant as the gum. I quit one time for a year, several times for six months. I don't know what the answer is, like I said, my mother has never been able to quit completely and I obviously have her genes. It's funny, Welbutrin / Zyban didn't make me quit - I just didn't care that I was smoking. And I sat around and drooled all day. More seriously, I quit for extended periods (6 months +) a few times. The last time I quit, I told myself that it was the last time that I was going to try to quit. If it didn't work, I'd just be a smoker for the rest of my life. That was November 2001, and I haven't had a cigarette (or any other form of tobacco except the occasional second hand smoke) since. Interestingly, I haven't had any dreams nightmares about falling of the wagon since I quit the last time, something that plagued me every previous time I tried to quit.Math tutoring available.
