Thank you Johnhans for answering my comment. Believe me, I have tried to quit cold turkey, but I never sleep
and I am so tired , I cannot function. Everything you say is true and I have tried so often, I gave up and felt it is
better to get some sleep than none at all and get sick other ways., I have cut back on the zolpiderm to 5 mg. and
I am trying something new tonight, hope it works. Thanks again, Lacey

@lacey, I started smoking when I was 13 years old. Anyway I wanted to quit smoking and a friend who successfully quit smoking, shared his secret. Quit while you have a cold, as you feel already down, tired and everything else. Maybe you can try go cold turkey, while you have cold. You are anyway tired so maybe it would help you to sleep a little and after a week you start feeling much better. I personally followed his advice and I have not smoked for the past 3 decades. Take care,
