That is what my hubby and I did. I was 21mg patch for about week. The whole time I was reading why quit I wasn't feeling to bad so I droped down to 14mg for 2 weeks then nothing.
I used the same methods I used quitting the hydro.

Hang tuff. Oh, and I walk a lot!! lol

I know it is difficult and I'm sorry if I sounded as if I were lecturing. I sure wish I could offer some sage advice : (
Hang in there and it will get better : )

There are going to be times like that, but give it a few minutes and it will pass, I promise you!
Are you using both the patch & nicorette gum or just regular gum? Don't use both, it's to much nicotine.

Read some articles at whyquit.com and get your mind off it....take a walk....do anything, but don't smoke.
