So day 2 here we go....but I'm on three hours of sleep. The patch gave me a racing heart and vivid, scary dreams. Does anyone else experience this? Or know if I should just pull the patch at night? Thanks in advance for your help.

When I 1st put on the parch I did have a racing heart but that went away. I did have very vivid strange dreams but to be honest I actually likes those dreams. Just found out be cause I will be hacing surgery I can't use the patch because of nicotine so now I am going cold turkey. I did use the patch for 6 days.
I have often read of exactly what you are experiencing. The solution has, in fact, been to take the patch off at night and put on a fresh one in the morning Be sure to change up your morning routine - get busy - while the nicotine has a chance to get back in your system. You might go for a walk right out of bed, or come here and read, or march in place, or do a couple of sets of stairs, or work on a crossword, or play a computer game. You should have extra time for any of this since you don't have to take the time to smoke one (or more!) cigarettes!
