Success Story
Quitting smoking can be done. Hear from someone who has.
“I bought the patch, read the directions, followed the plan and finished the program smoke-free.”
-Sabina McPherson, Virginia Beach, VA
I was a smoker for 25 years and finally quit using the patch. My final motivation to kick the habit came after my son began smoking. He said I couldn't seriously ask him to quit while I was smoking. Three weeks later, on April Fool's Day, I quit.
I had a great experience using NicoDerm® CQ® and Committed Quitters®. What I liked best about the product was the free quit plan. I bought the patch, read the directions, followed the plan and finished the program smoke-free.
I feel like the patch took care of my physical addiction to nicotine, but the psychological addiction was much harder to overcome. Every day was a temptation. In the car. Talking on the phone. After dinner. You name it. I learned to beat my psychological addiction by listening to music and reading, usually when my cravings were the strongest. Deep breathing was also a GREAT help. It calmed my nerves and got my mind off of the cigarettes.
I can honestly say that I have not had one cigarette since my quit day. I am very proud of my accomplishment and NEVER want to be a smoker again. One cigarette leads to another and then you're back at square one.
My advice… Plan! Plan! Plan! Get psyched for the process. Tell all your friends. Set a quit date. Do your homework so you know what to expect. Follow the program in the NicoDerm kit. Do all the steps for the prescribed period on time. This gives you about 9 weeks of assistance. Nine weeks of not smoking! They have researched this process and it DOES work!
