Close Smoking Addiction & Recovery
Quit 2/20/2009 Cold Turkey. Did ok til August. Started again, but will try again next year.
Treatments
- Cold Turkey Working / Worked
- So far so good. Glad I did it this way, it got the nicotine out of my system faster.
- Nicotine Gum Somewhat Helpful
- I only use this at times of "crisis" when distractions and other non-nicotine dependent methods fail.
- Nicotine Patch Not Working
- The patches just don't stay stuck. Expensive treatment for active (read sweaty) people.
- Support Groups Too Soon to Tell
- Helpful to stay focused and motivated
- Wellbutrin Not Working
- Was on this for 18+ months at one point for depression. Didn't see any decrease in my smoking at that time. HATED the side-effects.
Close Diets & Weight Maintenance
Lost close to 50 lbs in 2008, then quit smoking 2/20/09 and put half of that back on as of 4/27/09. Very discouraged. I've suffered from low body image issues all my life.
Treatments
- Eating Healthier Foods Too Soon to Tell
- I feel better...but also notice I never feel full for long.
- Eat Less Too Soon to Tell
- I know this is Key to my eating habits. Having a hard time finding reliable and effective information about how much caloric intake. Diets and web-sites are all over the map on how much.
- Physical Exercise Working / Worked
- Strength training 3x a week, but do something to keep my HR elevated for at least 20 min. Every day.
Open Gay Men's Challenges
Why am I here? Because my parents had sex...that's why.
