A member asked:
Can i just wear a nicotine patch forever instead of trying to wean off. i worked to hard to quit smoking and don't want to fall off the wagon.?

Slow growth is good: One day at a time works best. If you wean off very gently, and use mutual support, you may find that recovery is possible. Consider attending a meeting of nicotine anonymous.
