Every time you step down with the patch there is going to be a certain degree of nicotine withdrawal. Nicotine withdrawal effects us all differently, but the same in a lot of ways. Each time you step down, as long as you are prepared for it I think you will do fine. Just remember until you are off the patch your body is still on nicotine. The withdrawals are not going to be fully gone until the nicotine is. I couldn't bear the thought of going through hell week 4 times. I took the patch off. When I started using the patch, I thought it made it easier on me to quit. But because I never quit before ... I had nothing to compare it to. Once I took the patch off and went through hell week again ... I realized that cold turkey is easier than keeping the drug in you but not getting to smoke ... don't know if that makes any sense to anyone ... but it did for me. If that helps someone ... cool ... if not ... forget it ... lol. I'm happy you made it through the weekend Skidoo ... you have one heck of a Quit going on. Congrats to you!

Hi Cybrduke!! I get 23 skidoo quite a bit! I dont why Mike (my husband) ever started calling me skidoo - just kind of stuck once he did, he's the type of guy that has nicknames for everyone! Anyways, thanks for remembering me. I'm not here to often, find it hard to find the time to get on to the computer! 'Take care, Skidoo

YEAH!!!!! I have made it to 6 weeks. And believe me the way the weekend went I wasnt so sure that would happen! Why? you ask. Because it was %$^#@ hard! I went down a patch level and my coping skills went right out the window. I found myself standing at the kitchen counter last night just crying - shaking with tears. My poor husband, he asked me what was wrong and I couldnt get the words out (I must have looked quite the mess, shaking, knife in hand - was cutting veggies for dinner - not being able to speak - litterally). So, I went to bed REALLY early - just wanted to get the day over with. This morning when I got up first thing I thought was "I would love a smoke". Now where is that coming from????? It has been 6 weeks and a relatively easy 6 weeks for me - I would have to say that this is really my first major break-down. Why now? And I'm getting it all at once. BItchiness, depression, anger - even the gas is back LOL!! Man I could ramble on all day. Wish I could figure out how the instant messenger works! Some advice would be lovely. Well maybe not advice, maybe support is what I need. Support and some hugs. I just cant stop crying!!!!!!!!! Anyone who knows me would tell you that its not like me at all not to be in control. Ok, the baby is awake I have to go.\ Skidoo [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 5/1/2006 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 42 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 510 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $231 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 3 [B]Hrs:[/B] 17 [B]Mins:[/B] 53 [B]Seconds:[/B] 51

Awesome job Skidoo. Sorry to hear that it's been so tough the last couple of days. I would imagine it is very much like the first week or so for a cold turkey quitter. The crying and emotions won't last forever and once you turn the proverbial corner you won't regret a minute of this journey. You're doing GREAT!
