The patch only helps.
_You_ have to really want to quit smoking if you're going to quit smoking. (notice the period)
I used the entire step-down system just as they lay it out for you, but it still was a pain in the arse, and the week after I stopped using the patch was pretty hellacious (especially the 2 days after I was 100% nic-free)
But ya... smoked a pack a day for 8-years, and quitting with the patch was easier than the time I gave myself a 6-month "cold-turkey" trial a couple years before that....
Just gotta set a date, and stick to the date. Realize you'll always be an addict (hell, even 5 years smoke-free, I still get the urge to light up now and then), and stick to your guns.
