I smoked tobacco cigarettes for 45 years.  Every time I quit, I would get sick.  What a coincidence!  When I started doing some research, I learned that nicotine is very effective at warding off depression and anxiety, and also improves attention, concentration, visual memory, and hence performance.  No wonder I felt so blue, so confused, like I was literally walking around in a fog when I abstained from nicotine.

I managed to stay totally off nicotine for 6 months, and kept waiting for the recovery that never came.  Oh there were a few improvements in some things, but not in my thinking abilities.  I kept making mistakes and having to redo my work.  When my boss had a chat with my about my lack of productivity, I went back to the doctor and asked for treatment to fix my concentration and memory problems.  She told me there was nothing she could do; I told her I had no choice but to start smoking again.

In the years since, as various nicotine replacement products became available, I tried them all.  I managed to cut down on the number of cigarettes I smoked, but not to quit.  Finally, the e-cigarette became available.  It provides enough nicotine so that I can think straight and I have no cravings at all for tobacco.  My wheezing is gone, and so is the coughing.  My blood pressure is down. If e-cigarettes are taken off the market, I'll be forced to smoke tobacco again.  There are many brands and models available.  I use the NJOY NPRO.
