I've tried the patch, the lozenges, hypnosis, the gum, and recently switching brands (from Newport>>KOOL>>Marlboro Menthol Ultra Lights>>and now, Virginia Slims Menthol Ultra Lights). I want to quit so badly, but I get so depressed and I feel like my personal growth with myself is at stake. I start to get upset about things that I had long got over, it's like when I quit all of it comes back. I'm trying so hard to work on myself (I had a rough past but I want a bright future), I don’t want to let anything that had kept me down before still keep me there today. Smoking is one of many. I feel like I’m unattractive and singled out because of it. I'm already a unique person (not meaning in a bad way), don’t help my image. People get the wrong impression (like lesbian, very offensive). I'm pretty, smart, attractive, and so many other good things. It took me years to feel that way about myself, but the cigarettes I feel like they’re holding me back. As soon as my nicotine level drops here come the depression and my emotional state, my self-esteem, and self- worth all come tumbling down. It’s just so much! Why can't I do this? I want so much for me and I feel like cigarettes are holding me back from them. Please help me!
