YOU CAN DO THIS!
Get some nicotine gum/patches, Flavored toothpicks, things to chew on... (I'll link some things that worked great for me below)
Whatever it takes, you can do this.
This is
fresh for me.. I quit on march 11th this year after many failed attempts over decades.
Why march 11th? That's when I got the results of my chest CT scan.
My primary ordered it because he was kinda thinking pneumonia, I Had a bad respiratory tract infection the last time I saw him months earlier. I just knew I still had symptoms of being sick that just wouldn't go away.
The CT scan instead showed Severe Bullous Emphysema/Stage 2 COPD. ...From smoking. No doctors ever heard anything alarming in my chest prior, but it was that last bout of chest infection that put my lungs over the edge.
I quit smoking as soon as I saw the lab report. Has it been easy? Not a fucking bit. Is it still hard? Yes but not as bad as the first week or two but I do still get hella cravings. Did I cheat a bit at first? I did. But I forgave myself, gave myself some grace and just started fighting again.
The first thing I did was use the pharmacy/Amazon to get any and everything I might need to help with success... Nicotine gum, some OTC goodies.
Off Amazon, these 2 products were gamechangers!

@AmberCutie ... Amazon linking is borked on here as are 95% the platforms in the Add Media tool. You likely know but just in case
