Hi, so it is 2pm and I've really had to fight hard today it has made me realise how much the patches help, however I've got to day 2 without them and want to keep going. I am actually feeling quite nauseas. Any tips on anything that may help would be appreciated guys!!!!

Ok nearly two hours later and seemed to have got past it. I haven't tried a lower dose, I am trying to fight it because I have no doubt thatiwill and can do it this time. I'll see how I go but may have to either cut a patch or go to a lower dose. Thanks heaps, just needed to write when I was in the moment!!!

Don't try to fight the devil so early cut some of his minions down first then take off the patches. It took me 20 day's to start weaning off then 7 more to completely stop I'm not saying that you wont do it earlier but just remember that it's not a race to the end of the journey.
All the best Nic succeed

Hi Nic
WHat AFU says is very true - you need to do it at your own pace. I stopped on Champix and only managed way past the 2 week marker to smoke my last one. As for the nausea - get something from the pharmacy, tell them you are on patches and that it makes you nauseas if you feel that cutting your patches is too great a risk.
Good luck and I really hope you kick the habit, its really worth it!! STRONGS!!
