Toothpicks, Sticks and Straws: Even in ICU
by Kathy

Zyban/Wellbutrin... the third try finally did it! Found that I
"slipped" so many times the first two times I tried quitting...
that I never took the 2nd pill in the afternoon... just continued
to smoke... After the second trip to ICU for heart-related
problems, thought I'd best get serious about quitting. To help
with substituting a cigarette in my fingers, I cut drinking
straws in half and "smoked" them.... pretending to inhale and
exhale just as I would a cigarette. They even let you do that in
ICU... I'd been a smoker for 50 years and loved it. It's been
over three months (but who's counting) and I am still smoke-free.
I still have a half pack of cigarettes on my desk but haven't
lit any. Feel pretty secure at this stage that I won't be
tempted to light one up.
