Called will power just quit!!! I was 3 packs a day quit cold turkey
almost 4 years if you want to bad enough you will quit unless you have
a weak mind!!! The drug companys want you to think you need drugs or
patches to quit you just need to be strong and stop!


It depends on the physiology *and* psychology of the person. I've tried
quitting I don't know how many times. Longest was 9 weeks. All it
takes is a "trigger" to revert back (once I get over being sick like
heroin withdrawals). If there is a drug out there that will help with
the psychological (as well as the physiological - it seems Chantax does
that as well, in re nausea), I'll take it. So far I haven't found it.
Maybe this is it....

Once you stop taking the other drug you may have withdrawals from that.
As I said it's will power I know it is not easy you just have to have the
will to do it be strong it can be done with out drugs. Your body will
suffer a little from the damage you have done to it already but it can be
overcome with time. Our society is becoming to dependent upon
pharmaceuticals (Drugs) some of witch have far more worse side effects
then natural substances that nature created.

You just quoted the same side effects for just about every single drug on
the market. shrug Anyway. My point is, not everyone has the
PSYCHOLOGICAL makeup to just up and quit a physical addiction. They are
called "addictive personalities". I am one of those. I can't go into a
casino; I'll drain my bank account. Luckily I don't like being drunk (nor
the day after) so I don't drink but a couple glasses of wine/beer with
dinner or in a social situation (i like the taste with food).

That being said, the temporary side effects suffered while taking the drug
may or may not outweigh the benefits the drug may or may not provide.
That is between me and my doctor. And no one else. Regardless of your
opinions on "will power" and the drug companies, you have absolutely no
say in this decision.

Yea, between you and your drug pusher/perscriber! You said it yourself you
don't go in to casinos that is will power. Same with smoking just don't suck
on the end of a cigarette. As for temporary side effects from a drug they
don't know what long terms side effects will be.

What's the difference Between A Drug Pusher and Drug Dealer, The Pusher has
an M.D. look at their portfolio and compare with prescriptions written.
