I would like to hear the thoughts of anyone who has used Nicorette or the patch to quit smoking.
I would like to hear from those who used one and didnt quit smoking too.
I smoke a pack a day and I hate it. Im ready to actively participate in the salvation of my health.

yes i used nicorette gum for some time
it works. i recommend the citrus flavour, and 4mg for a pack a day smoker (which i used to be)
jsut be aware that you need to chew it slowly or youll be hiccups, maybe even a stomach ache

You should use the flagellation method.

i tried the gum and it wasn;t too pleasant after a while. the citrus flavour probably tastes better.
i still smoke though..

Its better to be addicted to the gum than cigarettes I reckon.

I'm thinking of going on the patch and then using nicorette to further supress my cravings.

use the patch stick with it, if you have a "craving" find some way to aviod it, ive heard the gum doesnt really work
ive had several friends who used the patch and it works, kind of expensive, like $45/month for 3 months, but not smoking and being healthier are a better choice
p.s. ive NEVER smoked anything
good luck brokenphones

i've given up giving up. i'm only a light smoker so it doesn't really bother me too much, i guess i'll give up eventually. most people need several attempts before they manage to quit so don't worry too much if you don't manage it this time around.

$45/month would mean I'm SAVING money. Canada taxes their cigarettes hardcore. $10 a pack.
Pack a day for a week = $70
I think you meant $45 american dollars. That would be $62.34 canadian. So I'm still saving money :)

I live near the flower pot rocks but otherwise New Brunswick is fairly boring.
Oh, and there's this awesome natural optical illusion that I live close to. Its called Magnetic Hill. If you stop your car on it, it starts rolling UPHILL! (But you're going down, but it looks like you are going up. Fucking creepy)
Heres some pics.
