I have been a smoker for 15 years. I have tried slowly cutting down. I have tried cold turkey. I have tried patches, gum, and losengez, none of which has helped. I am addicted. I have four children I don't want to turn into mrs. bit.h and I fear loosing my temper with them trying to quit. I also fear gaining more weight as I have already put on fourty pounds this year. I am a full-time student, and stress out easily. When I try to quit I have tons of anxiety, sweats, shakes, no differently than someone coming off some other drug. Last time I quit I was doing quite well, but my taste buds were reexperiencing things for the first time, and many of my favorite foods tasted nasty... so nasty that I resorted to sweets for norishment ad keep the foul taste out of my mouth. I grew up a third generation smoker... I want a better quality of life than ending up with stroke, heart attack, cancer or emphazima. I want a better quality of life for my children also unlike I had.
