I know that it is going to be hard, but hopefully with support from the people on the boards you all can help me. I would like to try and quit on my own. I have an appointment with my DOC for a prescription of CHANTIX, but that stuff is EXPENSIVE.
Wasting money has never been a problem for me, brother; or you, either, apparently.
For most of our lives, you and I have been spending money we couldn't really afford. We've been mumbling to checkout girls for decades, like confused thieves - "Take these coins and empty them in your cash-register. Nice and easy, replace my vital organs with mounds of the toxic filth that's in that can right there; and no-one will get hurt."
Spending money is not going to fix this craziness. No pill is going to cure you of two dozen years of poisoning your body and your mind. You already know that - am I right? You're just hoping to make it a little easier. You want to quit. The magic that will make it happen is to go for what you want, now.
Post roll with me, and I'll post roll too. That won't make it easy, but it will make it happen.
Take encouragement and pass it on. Pick out some arbitrary fellow newbie, and give him a pep-talk like you know what you're talking about, and that will help you to keep yourself off the ledge. Make a plan for the next quarter of a century and become the sort of person that goes 24 years without touching the stuff again, today.
