• The General Mental Health Forum is now a Read Only Forum. As we had two large areas making it difficult for many to find, we decided to combine the Mental Health & the Recovery sections of the forum into Mental Health & Recovery as a whole. Physical Health still remains as it's own area within the entire Recovery area.

    If you are having struggles, need support in a particular area that you aren't finding a specific recovery area forum, you may find the General Struggles forum a great place to post. Any any that is related to emotions, self-esteem, insomnia, anger, relationship dynamics due to mental health and recovery and other issues that don't fit better in another forum would be examples of topics that might go there.

    If you have spiritual issues related to a mental health and recovery issue, please use the Recovery Related Spiritual Advice forum. This forum is designed to be like Christian Advice, only for recovery type of issues. Recovery being like a family in many ways, allows us to support one another together. May you be blessed today and each day.

:wave:Just finished step one of the patch and am on step two now which is a reduction of nicotine from 21 to 14 mg released over a twenty four hour period. I haven't smoked. Had some urges but they went away pretty fast. I can't wait till I get to step 3 which will be a reduction of nicotine to 7 mg. over a 24 hour period. It's about day 7 or 8 for me without a smoke. I've gone longer than this before. I am quitting to get my blood pressure back under control among other reasons. I don't want to have a stroke or heart attack.

I could use some prayers at this time. Thank you.:crosseo:
