Weaning is a logical approach. But, the nic bitch is not logical. I've tried weaning before, and it resulted in longer withdrawls and increased anxiety. I had set up a schedule: every two weeks take it down 1 dip a day, that's all...go from 5 dips a day to 4 dips a day - you wouldn't believe the anxiety that caused. All along with the nic bitch in your ear.
btw - this method usually lasted about 3 days for me in the past
