Maybe get a home blind so that you are always in that "the deer can smell me" state of mind.
Having a bunch of things TO DO planned so that when you are healing your brain you are offering it all the alternatives that prior have been withheld from your brain. THe air, the learning time and so often the down time.
I suspect a lot of what drives the addiction process is the unrealistic wish to be more human than we really are:not to sleep, eat, feel,and to push through to goals all with these tiny bits of our days and our lives using a product that does not help us in any meaningful way. Today I read on the why quit.com how the whole process of addiction to tobacco is about avoiding the withdrawl.
The patch will help with the 4000 other gases and limit the nicotine, so you will not have the nicotine withdrawl as much as those 4000 gases and the habit of providing this material at regular intervals. Over a few days you will start to feel better, breathing wise, and the sense of smell will return. So plan on doing the cleaning you will need to remove the residue and the odars with those regular minutes now free for you use to make your dreams come true. THis is the path to freedom. This is how it looks and how it feels and we are all aware of how the alternative really is and that, my fellow smokaholic, is what this journey is about:healing the insanity.It is reteaching your brain to do what is good for you and not the other way around.
