14 months since quitting the nicotine gum... that's probably 2145 nicotine delivery devices not chewed. 8 months and 8 days since stopping smoking. That's about 2530 poisonous smoking sticks not inhaled. I've probably already saved about $1300 so far. I think the biggest gains so far have been mental...for instance I no longer experience the indignity of standing outside in the rain to get my fix, feeling like a spectacle or an outcast, or just plain fahREEZIn!

Hi John, Papagoat, and welcome to the forum. Nicotine is like any other dope. It hijacks our inner happiness by turning off our brain's own dopamine production, so that we become dependent on the nicotine rush in order to feel "happy". So yes, it is worth it to stay the course. You will notice the change, maybe tomorrow, maybe next week or next month, but do please hang in there because you're almost there. Somebody once said, "There are no shortcuts to any place worth going." This is so true with nicotine recovery. It doesn't happen overnight or even in a few months for most. But persevere and believe that you will get your mojo back because you will. If it's a deep depression, do seek mental help. But if it's the ain't-got-no-nicotine blues, then hang in there, John, cuz soon you'll be whistling the Freedom tunes!

Welcome aboard the train, Shezi! Good for you for quitting smoking! Six weeks is huge, and you've already done the head-shrinking part. This is an excellent place to get support through the long haul, and a wealthy resource for information and distractions. I too highly recommend Joel Spitzer videos for counseling and reinforcement. Once you get off nicotine altogether, just remember that the reward for not smoking is not a cigarette. Plan for that. We are here to support you on days 45 onward! Enjoy your happier lungs forever and welcome!
