Cigarette Tube Filler

How long does it take nicotine patches to kick in?
The package I bought says I will be doing this whole process for 8 weeks...



Damn that seems like a long time. It may be hard to resist smoking that long. How effective are the patches?

The urges that you're feeling are for the oral fixation associated with smoking. Here's two tips that helped me:



1. When you feel the urge for a cigarette, take a deep breath through your mouth. (When you smoke your body learns to associate cigarettes with deep breaths -- so when your body wants to breathe, it tells you it wants a cigarette.)



2. Take a cheap Bic pen and take the filler out. All you want is the plastic tube part. Puff on that throughout the day -- put it down, pick it up, treat it like a cigarette. That helps to keep your hands busy.



I smoked for five years and I still need to use that pen trick sometimes to help kick the cravnings. Good luck!
