I'm struggling with smoking cessation and could use some advice. I'm currently taking 75mcg Thyronorm and have been dealing with depression for the past five years. On top of that, I'm experiencing massive hair loss and obesity. I'm finding it really hard to quit smoking. Can you suggest some effective ways to help me quit this habit?
