I quit smoking in October of 2002, and I didn't use the patch or anything, I just gradually cut down. I currently live with my mom and stepfather and they don't allow smoking in the house so I had to go outside, and when its in the middle of December or January, it gets really cold. Also I never had time to go out and have a cigarette at work so it got to the point where I would have a cig in the morning, and one 8 hours later after work. I have only had 1 cigarette since then and that was on New Years Eve. Anybody can quit smoking. What I thought would be hard for me is when I went out to the bars/clubs because cigarettes go so well with alcohol, and that was a small problem at first but now I'm used to it and whenever I go into a really smokey bar/club, I want to gag. Me not smoking has not made my IBS worse, but I don't have the severe IBS. Do what you need to do to quit, whether it be the patch, gum or pills. I'm here for you if you need anything.
