"Free & Clear's Quit For Life Program made me take responsibility for myself and I could sign in at any point during the day...I have been "free and clear" for 7 months now, which is the longest I have been smoke free."

I have smoked since I was 15 years old and now I am over 40.  I have tried to quit and have quit many times using hypnosis, cessation programs, the patch, the gum and antidepressents.  Hypnosis never worked for me, the cessation programs helped me to become more aware of what I was doing and cut down usage, but I was never able to actually quit smoking unless I used a product that substituted the nicotine...I am a true addict.

After following the patch/gum program I remained smoke free for weeks or a few months, but always went back when confronted with any sort of stress.  What I loved about this program was that I did not take another form of nicotine, thereby remaining dependent on that drug.

Free & Clear's Quit For Life Program made me take responsibility for myself and I could sign in at any point during the day...not deal with phone calls when my kids were screaming in the background, or go to meetings that I would have a hard time attending because of my husband's  work schedule.  I have been "free and clear" for 7 months now, which is the longest I have been smoke free.  I still get urges but I can handle them.  I am bike riding up to 10 miles a day now and am never short of breath.  I've gained some weight, but it is manageable because I have remained active, and I am no longer hiding from my family trying to have a cigarette and feeling like I've let them and myself down every time I inhale.  My acne has cleared up and my skin looks super.  I really feel great!!
