Will it be hard to give up the nicotine patch?

Chicago Stop Smoking Research Project (C-STOP) | FAQ
Studies have shown that it is much easier to give up the patch than it would be to give up cigarettes for two reasons. First, we usually develop cravings for things that provide immediate satisfaction, like chocolate. With the patch, the nicotine level in your body stays relatively constant day after day. There is no immediate satisfaction, so there is little craving for a patch. Secondly, anything you do often such as smoking becomes a habit.
