Summary
The nicotine patch isn't fooling you anymore and you've chewed more gum-or perhaps fingernails-than you can count. The designated smoking area outside your office still beckons, and every minute you don't light up is torture. No matter how long you've been a smoker or how many times you've resolved to quit "tomorrow," it's hard to buck up during this anxiety-inducing, guilt-laden, physically challenging time.
