Paul, I can't "quote" on the computer I am using, but the Summer 2013 Quitters are just under 50%. Edited to add: It is important to remember that I did not begin tracking the Summer 2013 quitters until October, so everyone was at least two months, already...

Oh, Lace, I am so happy for you!! Six months is awesome, and so are you!!

219! Let's have 220!

I understand keeping Chantix around as a safety net. I got a refill of my prescription after the initial 90 days, because I told myself I would take a pill before I smoked. My logical brain realized that one pill would do virtually nothing, but it made me feel safer in my quit. However, I think if someone has been quit for some weeks or months, that popping on a patch or chewing nicotine gum is only going to make matters worse, because the physical addiction is done. I say this based on the law of addiction: Administration of a drug to an addict will cause reestablishment of chemical dependence upon the addictive substance." Now, is it better to do that than light a cigarette? Yes, but why awaken the addiction?

My only point is that there is not nicotine, so it is not classified as NRT.
