T-T-Trying t-t-to q-q-quit s-s-s-smoking…

Sometime just before Thanksgiving I went on the patch. Stage 1 of the patch is not so bad, it is a little rough not to smoke, but that really does help. Then comes stage 2, I thought I was going scratch through my shirt trying to activate the nicotine on the patch for about 2 weeks. I swore that some of the patches were defective. I used up stage 2 and I knew stage 3 would be horrible. It first starts with 28mg for stage1, then 14, for stage 2, and who knows what stage 3 has. It seems no store sells it although every box has it on there, that you need it.
There’s nothing more frustrating than driving from store to store at 7am in the morning looking for a nicotine fix. “got to have my stuff man” Such was the case yesterday morning. I think the makers of Nicoderm and everyone else must think you’ll give up before you get to stage 3. “Yea, the final non-smoking stage is not our top-seller”, I can picture it in my mind.
Thus, I went to the nicotine gum. This stuff sucks!! My jaws feel like their going to break. I just have one question to the makers of this Nicorette a la leather your selling. Why is it so f*&cking hard to open?!?! Each individually wrapped, sealed, and a tiny hard to get a hold of tab to pull, is just freakin’ great for shaking hands.
I just called in my prescription for Zyban…
