4 weeks is a tremendous effort Dorrie. Well done! :hug:

The weight gain is only a temporary glitch. Once you're off your patches you'll be able to think about losing weight, but for now, just concentrate on one thing at a time.

Congratulations.

Thanks Anne...I needed that redirection...today has been really hard. I dropped down to 14mg from 21mg. I could really feel the difference. I have been moody and anxious all day. I do NOT like withdrawl at all. This reminds me of the withdrawl effects of effexor...just not as bad. I am having a really hard time with focusing..my brain is somewhat boggled as well. Lord I hope this does not last too long. I thought all of my withdrawl was done when I quit drinking...NOT...I had to go and decide to quit smoking!! Oh well. I tell you...even though it is really hard at times...I do not want to be a smoker...I want me and mine and our things to be smoke free!! I want me and mine to live longer!! Take Care Anne xoxo Thank you!

Dorrie go back to the pharmacy and buy another of the stronger packs, like the 21mg. patches that you just finished.

If you're having a really tough time, buy the dose that you had before the 21mgs, but don't give up! There's absolutely no reason at all that you cannot repeat last week's dose, or the dose before.

One step back, but then two steps forward Dorrie.

Please know that I'm here for you :hug:
