nicoderm CQ Facts?

Question

I started the Nicoderm CQ patch today and... I've smoked 3 cigerettes. Less than usually but I'm still craving... BADLY! I've heard it's good, and I've heard it's bad to smoke with the patch. Does anyone know FOR SURE which is correct? I've heard if you do smoke it increases your chances of quitting. And, some other questions. Has anyone used it and it actually worked? How long have you not been smoking? What are some good things to replace your cigerettes with? If anyone has an answer... PLEASE HELP I desperatly want to quit smoking. I work with children and I kinda' have to too. Thanks a bunch!

Answer 1

Nicoderm CQ contains nicotine so it has to help. Overlap the patches a few hours for a week, then separate them farther and farther apart. you have to be careful not to get addicted to the patches. Start your experiment when you go on an ocean cruise and it will all be easier. The distractions are so numerous it helps.

Answer 2

I was on another brand of the patch once (which was supposed to have *cleared* the nicotine out of my system instead of supplementing it). It recommended that you smoke while using the patch for the first few days (i.e. no more than the first 5 days). I found no change during that period, but after being just on the patch itself, I had a bit of success. But just 2 weeks after I had finished using the patch, I went back to smoking again. It may take time...

There are several different ways to keep yourself occupied. Chew a lot of gum, or use something to keep your mouth occupied (i.e. a straw). The cravings may come every now and then, but as long as you're keeping yourself occupied in some way, they will go away quickly.

Hope you have much better success than I had. Good luck!
