If you have an addiction to nicotine, you can go to a physician for a transdermal patch to decrease your desire to smoke (nicotine).

If you have an addiction to a piece of code (computer game or program), you can go to a website or a business and get a patch to increase your addiction.

If you have a relationship problem, go see a professional counselor and patch things up.

Guess which one of these three has any lasting success?
