I can’t take narcotics or gabapentin either. Nasty stuff.
Look only you can find the willpower to quit. I smoked 40 years, quit 6 years ago and then got the non smoker’s lung cancer. God has a sense of humor I guess. But if your cancer wasn’t a wakeup call, only you know what will be.

For me six years ago - gum and ice water. One or both every time I wanted one. And after 4 days it’s not your body craving it - nicotine has flushed by then. It’s just that seductive siren saying “you know you want one”. In fact, You know you got this and should quit. Call one of the quit smoking numbers and they will talk you off the ledge. Get busy - take your walk. But don’t give me that stuff about ‘I just couldn’t resist’. resist. Of course you can. You have to decide to.

I’m pulling for you!

Thank you & you're right. Resist! I did it for 2 weeks, now I just start it again. Two a day is not necessary for what it would cost me in the end.
