I really, really, REALLY hate to reference this article below, especially to Victor who has already beaten the odds. I am in week two of the patch again (having used it twice before, once for a two year successful quit and recently for a seven month quit), so I am of course interested in all of this. The article is from a clearly biased writer (highly biased – cold turkey support bookseller etc.), with no impressive formal qualifications, but the facts he lays out look pretty good on first impression by a layperson.

(The one point for Victor is: Watch out for a relapse after you've quit the drug - you will reportedly get a flood of dopamine that could turn you into a super-smoker.)

I worry most about Rog's recent bad moods. So check this out, don't get over-worked about it – and check with a doctor if it raises questions:
