hello

[syndrome]

Still amazes me how much the medical community does NOT know about quitting.

I'm absolutely stunned with how fucking stupid these doctors are. They should be prescribing smokey mountain and not the patch. They tell you to use the patch so you can break the HABIT of putting that shit in your mouth. But using the patch does nothing for the ADDICTION. Fuck - if I had an addiction to shooting heroin would they tell me to snort it instead?

Fuck the patch. With the patch you've accomplished absolutely nothing. Quit now. No nicotine ever. No gum. No cigars. No smokes. No Patch. Nothing.

Cold turkey is what has worked for everyone else who's throwing support your way. Are we all wrong? Is that likely? There are thousands of us on here screaming from the rooftops to JUST STOP. Doctors... shit. Fuck them. Quit now.

man i aint sure the docters are stupid so much as this heres a big gapein hole in there tranin. man there all worryed bout diagnosin dizeaze and what not and tryin to find the best ways to fix that up. but man evin for that you no what the biggist sorse of informashun they get is? its them pharma reps. and the pharma reps are lookin to treet evry thing with there products man. so the doc don't have the time to figger out whats rong with this corse but they here the drug reps sayin us our gum/patch/drug a the month cuz look how affectave it is. so man this is why i think we did a dam good thing sendin a groop to the spit tabaco summit. we opined a lot a eyes to see what works. man i hope we can continyou this work. i reely wish we cood do some kind a study what mite get publisht in that new englind jernal a medasin. cuz that wood kick but and opin eyes big time.

Your doctor is a useless tit providing you a slippery nipple to the nic bitch.

Look...scoobie, if you want to quit, then god dammit quit. Here's how I would determine what to do. Go into a quiet room. Turn off all the lights. Take a deep breath and rip that patch off. Just rip it off. Then take another deep breath and ask yourself (out loud...say it so you can hear it) "am I scoobie with that patch off or on?" There's your answer.

[AgLawyer]

How can thousands be wrong? Everyone here has quit cold turkey. By using the patch you are only continuing to feed the addiction. Your addiction is not any worse than those here who have succeeded. The first step is jumping in and posting roll. You need to want it bad enough though if you want to succeed in becoming free of this addiction.

I hope you choose freedom with all of us...one day at a time.

Me -- 21 years of use, can a day....will post 85 days free tomorrow. If I can do it, you can do it.

Whether nicotine dependency was established and/or maintained by being chewed, smoked, drank, snuffed, sprayed, swallowed, sucked, licked or patched, in the end there is only one way out - no nicotine today.

Ditto...cram the suppositories in your doctor's mouth and quit with us!!!

[Greg5280]

You are still ingesting Nicotine when you use the patch. Nicotine is what you are trying to get away from. Still amazes me how much the medical community does NOT know about quitting.

There are thousands of us here that all quit the same way. Dump the shit, grab your sack and ride it out. Does it suck ? Yes it does. Is it hard to do ? One of the hardest things I have ever done. Can it be done ? Absolutely !

Post your promise daily and keep your word. Toss the cans, patches, gum, candy, suppositories or whatever you have with nicotine in it and get to quitting !!

STAY QUIT
Greg

Sorry.
I haven't posted roll because I decided try my doctor's way first.
From what I've gathered, using the patch = no roll.

I figured I shouldn't offend anyone.

As soon as my wifi works at home and I'm not so busy at work, I planned less lurking and more posting in the cafe or non group forums.

This really sucks. I feel constantly sick, shaking and irritable. I haven't slept well in a week. All I really want is a dip.

Thanks for keeping tabs on me.

And by using the patch in 3 weeks you will still feel like shit. Save your money and just quit. Everyone of us has quit cold turkey. It really is the best. Got a question, did your doctor have a dip in....NO. Doctors dont really know shit about quitting nicotine, because they do it by prescribing nicotine....WTF...

What Im trying to see is just man up and gold cold turkey...In about 3 days all the nicotine will be out of your body and then it is just a mental game...

I did not need a patch... i just posted roll...

Day 175

day 393 here AND NO FRIGGIN PATCH!! man up scubaboy, put on your bigboy pants and get busy. The longer you put this off the harder it will be. And the doctors MAKE MONEY by prescribing patches. Tell him to take his patches and stuff them up his arse.

Patches are for gheys.....

You have been using nicotine for the past 22 years. And for the past 22 years you have been nicotines bitch. Think of how many times you left an event early or avoided someone just so you could get your fix. She has you convinced that you need her to survive. And now she knows you want to leave her. So now the sneaky bitch is telling you, "I know you are going to leave me, but before you do, put this patch on your arm. It will be easier, I promise".

But the truth is if you quit cold turkey today or use the patch for 4 weeks, the first three days without nicotine will suck. Why prolong the wait. Tell the nic bitch who is the boss and take control of your life. The freedom from nicotine is so enriching. Stay close to KTC, drink the kool-aid and I promise you that you can quit. Throw away the patch and post day one.

Why haven't you posted roll yet?

[AgLawyer]

OK, great thanks.

So if I understand this, "every" day I do roll call in my group.

What if I'm having a rough day or just need to scream? Do I stay within my group, do a live chat, hit up another forum for the day?

I'm sadly horrible at navigating things like this. I didn't see a "forum rules" section anywhere and know that etiquette is extremely important in forums.

Thanks again.

Post roll call in your group first thing in the morning. After that you can post anywhere you want. Most people will post in their quit group or there own intro page. If you need to talk to some one, jump onto live chat or shoot someone a pm. You should also exchange some phone #s with members of your group. Text or call a brother/sister if you are having a bad crave. Jump on the wild card section if you just want to screw around.

Other then posting roll call daily, there really is not any "forum rules". Scream anywhere you want.

Exactly.

Rules have their place as far as being associated with a particular group such that you always at least post in there - Jan. 2012 for you - but other than that, post, yell, scream wherever you please...just stay quit.
