I am not sure if this happens with anyone else or not, but i quite smoking 5 days ago. Not smoking instead using nicotine gum to purge the urge but since last 2 days every night i have been dreaming that i am smoking, like actually lightning the cigarettes and actual act of smoking and it is always so vivid. Don’t know why this is happening to me but i would love to not have such dreams as it is really tough anyways.

I have been feeling pain in my chest for some time. It comes and goes. I smoke a lot, and lately it has increased to like 6–8 per day.

Today morning, half asleep, I decided I need to stop or accept a fate that could be much worse. I am looking for genuine ways to help, like nicotine patches or nicotine replacement, if you guys can help and support.

I have tried in the past, only to relapse after a couple of weeks. But this time I will give it my all. I will not smoke even with drinks, as drinks are the hardest time when the urge reaches its peak, and I relapse from there after.

Thanks if you read this. Any helpful suggestions are welcomed
