I'm really appreciating all the reports.
One of the folks in my dental office suggested (a) use mouthwash and, ideally, dental floss after each lapse; (b) make a chart and track your progress - make a game of it. That kind of jives with the patches, lozenges, etc. and adds some twists.
Seems stupid, doesn't it? Don't want to smoke? Well, then don't! But... some know... it's easy to make a long series of "Ok, just one more."
- cycojesus 16y agoI don't agree with the "make a game of it" approach. It sets you for failure as it keeps the smoking in your thoughts constantly. It also makes a lot of drama about something that is really very easy, want to stop smoking? just never light that next cigarette, never. Forget that next cigarette, forget smoking, forget all the reasons that makes you think you have to smoke and forget all the drama about quitting. What ever the situation the next cigarette will make it worse. (see my other comment too)
