H2Andy:the patch worked for me on the third try (or maybe fourth) ... combined with herbal cigarettes to deal with the hands and oral issues ...
not sure about how they work under water .... but i would rather quit smoking even if it means not diving for a few weeks =)
also, remember, stress is just an indication of poor coping skills ... you are smoking to self-medicate (i.e. treat the symptoms). you are not dealing with the underlying causes of the stress (which is how you cope with life).
you may need to deal with those underlying causes. that's when i finally got to quit.
Craig Baumann:Oops! Smoked a couple this week. Don't hate me. I saw Paul Newman smoking in "Hud" and had to have one.
Fish_Whisperer:I quit on the 18th of December.
