ZERO
you have to have some interest in not smoking and build that interest into confidence so you can quit.
so, how do you do that?
you start catching yourself when you want to smoke and you say "I'm gonna wait a little longer.
if you are truly interested in quitting the time between smokes will grow to hours over time and it won't seem like torture, it you will feel like you are gaining control
It shows you that you don't need to smoke every time you want to smoke.
Doesn't that seem more positive than just thinking about quitting and doing nothing?
Isn't that a better way to get started than just doing nothing and thinking you will magically quit?
One part of quitting smoking is the addiction.
The second part is smoking induced from memories, emotions and the daily repetition.
If you are using the patch, use the time on the patch to soften the edges while you get a handle on the second part.
The patch isn't going to quit for you. Nothing will.
except you.
