I don’t get it. It’s kinda like you got to want to quit but at the same time yeah quitting is already hard for me. But I’m supposed to put it on me and somehow I get a form of nicotine without smoking. It’s like how am I supposed to get used to it. I will even take the patch off try to save it for later just so I can have a cigarette. But yeah I think taking it off might actually ruin it. I read the instructions a little bit but yeah the whole nicotine patches last 24 hours and you shouldn’t put it on more than 24 hours. So I really don’t know if nicotine patches do anything especially since I enjoy smoking.

    They help quitting since you only have to deal with the physical act of smoking (which in of itself is a very ingrained act) without dealing with nicotine withdrawal

    Do whatever you want if you don’t care about yourself nor anyone else… good luck!! 🙏🤞

    Just kidding but there is some truth in there, stick the patch on your skin it will stop you from having the sensation of wanting to smoke, for some people work for some people don’t, the best way to stop smoking in my humble POV it’s going to rehab.

    Smoking it’s just meh mate, if you want to die young heroin it’s better… pro tip…
