I tried the gum, which worked well, but then I realized it was just a
different monkey on my back, so I went cold turkey, also (which I also

I'm 3 days smoke-free today. I've been trying since Dec to quit, but I
could never get through one whole day without smoking ONE cigarette. I'm on
Chantix. Love the wild dreams. lol
