You make great, important points here, Yoda: one of the implications of them (for me) is that there are fewer downsides to NRT than many cold turkey advocates sometimes suggest. Claims of the quitters who, for instance, are still chewing nic gum years after they stopped smoking are wildly overstated and hyperbolic IMO, and I've always been concerned that such messages (and the overall fetishization of the Cold Turkey quit) have limited overall quitting success rates (because people who might benefit from NRT are instructed and that the "best" or even only way to quit is CT). I'm not nearly as active in the cessation community as I used to be, so I don't know if the CT message is as strident and even exclusionary as it used to be. But my sincere hope is that more people have come to understand and honor the many different ways to effectively and healthily quit smoking. Christian99 21+ Years Quit

Congratulations on your 2nd month of being quit! You are doing great! I hope that you rewarded yourself well.

Great job @Brioski!! Way to defend your quit despite adversity. Congratulations on hitting the two month mark. Here’s to many more months to come. It gets easier soon!

congrats @Brioski 2 months is a mighty fine start. you are doing great.

I feel ya on the digestion thing. That is actually what spurred me to join this forum. If you read my earliest post you'll see that I literally was full of shit. LOL. But the way they were able to take something that was probably about as addictive as weed (which I could smoke or not smoke at will and never had a crave for it) and turn it into something that is so subtle and yet so hard to give up is almost admirable. We are a genius lot even if some of us are evil asf. Anyway, glad the NRT worked for you and @Gus.

Thank you

Congratulations @Brioski I know it may not always feel this way but you are doing great. Keep up the awesome work, it does get better. You are doing awesomely.

woohooo! Congratulations!
