For many people, quitting smoking seems like an impossible feat. Nicotine is arguably the most addictive widely-available substance that exists. If you can't go cold turkey, then trying the nicotine patch might be a good solution. The patch, which looks and feels like a Band-Aid, releases nicotine into your body through your skin. This significantly reduces your body's nicotine cravings, thereby reducing your desire to smoke.
