i tried the patch and then after about 2 days i said "doesnt this defeat the purpose of quitting if im still putting nicotine in my system?" so i quit cold turkey. then for about 3 days i was throwing up in cold sweats and felt like i was going to die. i quit from january 29th 2006 at 12:10 pm (lol) until like may of this year. it was so much easier at first because everyone was telling me how proud they were but after a while that went away. i was on welbutrin but for depression and it made cigarettes taste nasty. but it also made me feel like a zombie and i hated it. now i just hate having to pull away from my boyfriend because he hates the way cigarettes taste. i feel like im getting closer to being able to say "i want to quit" cause now its more of a social thing, not a doing it so i dont go crazy thing.

thanks for all your support guys.im going to try again over thanksgiving break when we go home to see the family.
