Nicotine Gum: Each Time is Easier
by Kim
Englewood, Colorado
United States
This and That! I decided to quit this year before I turn 40 in
August. I am on my 5th attempt and this one seems to be going
best of all. I went to a hypnotist and listen to my
self-hypnosis tape daily. A friend who does accupuncture has
given me 3 lung cleansing treatments. I'm also taking an herbal
lung support tonic to help clear my lungs faster. I am using
nicotine gum 5 or 6 times a day. I really thing the repeated
quits have helped more than anything, I know what to expect a
little better and I have a little more experience going without a
cigarette. Don't forget to make a written list of your top
reasons to quit and re-read it at least daily. There is a lot of
online help available too for both education and support.
Nuturing my anger at the tobacco companies seems to have helped
also. I have tried the patch before but seem to have developed
an allergy to it (large welts for 3 or 4 days at each patch
location) so no patch this time.
