no, i'm not just quoting tori amos. my significant other quit with me last may because i always promised myself i'd quit by my 30th birthday. other than bitchiness (although i was probably always the same grouch, just now i have quitting smoking to blame it on), i've had a pretty easy time with it. my significant other is on stage 2 patches. i know it's healthier than smoking, but i'm wondering if there's something i can do to get him off them entirely. Running out the other day caused a serious attitude shift, & i don't like the idea of him still having that crutch. yes, i know, codapendents anonymous exists

Re: adddicted to nicotene patches
Sun, February 27, 2005 - 3:53 PMPatches & gum and all the other shit is called "nicotine replacement therapy" and it doesn't work all the time. You need to rid your body of ALL nicotine. That is what keeps someone addicted to cigarettes. -

Sun, February 27, 2005 - 7:47 PMhey- kudos to you for trying. *looks above and rolls eyes* i thought the whole point of those things is to wean yourself off of them? why not just try applying further and further apart until he's not wearing them anymore? or have you tried that already? -

Wed, March 2, 2005 - 4:47 PMthat's a good idea, i don't think he's done that. i've been taking a passive role because i'm so proud of him for not smoking, but the nicotene affects his sleeping patterns, and i think it affects his drive as well.
