Wellbutrin helped me. I stopped cold turkey. Patches just draw it out longer, and the nicotine stays in your body longer. Google search positive reasons to stop. Look at pictures of tobacco lungs, some even plugged into hose with air pumping in, and good lungs next to the rotten lungs. Go on Google & search END OF LIVE COPD. My older brother has COPD. It's number four in killing people. The process to dying is so horrible, you would just have to read it to understand.
