I have tried nicorette, patches, hypnosis, chantix, wellbutrin, yoga, acupuncture,
cessation classes, therapy and cold turkey to quit
smoking. I have smoked for 40 years. When I try to quit I get hysterical, I cry for days and I can't function and I am just overwhelmed with anxiety. I have a very high stress job, I care for an elderly parent in my home, and I am a recovering alcoholic, 20 yrs, so addiction is not new to me.
