dont waste your money on patches they are rubbish, the craving only last for 15mins as long as you can keep your self busy you be fine

These are supposed to be good as (1) You can smoke indoors and (2) they only contain nicotine and not any of the shit.

just stop its all a mental game, i smoked for a good 15years and then decided to stop, was hard for the first month but after that its only got easier. 2 years on I'm still smoke free and tbh i don't even think about it and the smell makes me sick, can't believe i wasted so much money on it.

if you try and replace smoking with something else your more likely to loose since your just swapping one thing for another and when using a E-cig your still smoking as your taking in nicotine just not the crap. Take that away down the line and .... oh wait you'll need a fag to sort out your nicotine buzz. Best thing to do is cold turkey.

Having trouble my self, ive started to cut down having around 10-15fags during monday-friday then try not to have as much when drinking on a week end. Eventually ile just be on like 1a day and a few more on the weekend and then just stop as the craving for a fag will lessen

E lites.... removes most the toxins doesn't it so at least it is safer. As for giving up.... Will power...think of it how it is. You are a drug addict, your body is craving a drug. GO Cold Turkey....it will get easier the longer you are off as the drug and craving weens from your body it will become less and less powerful

lol thats what ive got a e-lite going to see how i get on with that :)

don't buy any fags, and certainly don't buy these electronic fags. Cold turkey is how it works. As long as you need a fix to put in your mouth or to stick on your arm, you're still a smoker.

As far as im aware they are nicotine only! Nicotine being the addictive part of a cigarette so there are no toxins.

[danny-vts]

patches, gum and those little nicorette tablety things are crap, tried them, doesn't work, longest iv lasted without a cig is 2 days.

[1991Tom]

Avoid any nicotine product! its the downfall of so many good hearted people wjho want to break the habbit.

Go Cold turkey and keep your mind occupied. With just about everything that can be called a habbit (anything can be addictive/habbit after 6 weeks of repetion). There is a saying called the three day hump. This basically means when trying to give up a habbit the first 3 days are the worst and toughest. After that the will power needed will be strong but youve just got to occupy yourself with other things.

I quit for a year and annoyingly started again mid last year lol

Tablets worked for me a couple of years ago. Champix or something like that. Side effects are horrible but they worked with no cravings or anything. Just a crazy ex lass kind of knocked me back some, but that was my choice

[Pieface]

Did you're friend buy them before saying they were £120? lol

[Prickle]

600 fags.

Happy lungs. :D ;)

As far as im aware they are nicotine only! Nicotine being the addictive part of a cigarette so there are no toxins.

But nicotine is probably one of the strongest most dangerous toxins in cigarettes, there is enough nicotine in a pack of 20 tabs to kill a child.

I'm going to give up soon, I've cut down from 10 a day to 5 a day it's just those 5 which I find the hardest to give up, morning, after a meal and before bed. I realised the other day that I've smoked for longer than I haven't (smoked for 17 years, 33 years old) so it's time I stopped.

I'm going to use an old jar half filled with water then packed with tab ends each time I feel I need one I'm going to have a good sniff of the jar, I know that will put me off!!! I'm not keen on the idea of patches, gum, electric cigarettes etc, I'm just going to stop once I've cut down to 2 a day.

[wassy78]

Did you're friend buy them before saying they were £120? lol

no lol but ive said ill take them if he wants and ill sell them on but he said its ok he can sell them ......it just made me think on how much yeh spend on fags ....well today i would of had between 10 to 15 fags by now . ive had 3 im trying not to have any more today . i think trying to just fully stop thats were its harder so my plan is only 2 fags tomorrow then to 1 then stop lol fingers crossed . but i do think ive done well :hug: or over the next couple of days

[Adamvts03]

Just cut down wassey that what i did ...
found chewing gum helped normal stuff,and keep your hands busy i used a 2p and flipped it up and down my fingers

Keep it up pal :)

[Bedford126]

Not just the fags you need to stop wassy its all the cock smoking you do too that's the killer mate. :homme:

[wassy78]

If I did were would that leave me and you :(

[tichy]

i stopped for two days but seemed to smoke more when i started again :/

[wassy78]

Well I've not had a fag now for 17 hours :( it sounds not long but to me it is lol

[Kenobi]

Easiest way to stop smoking and how i didi it.

Think really really hard about someone you hate, i mean detest, would kill if you where sure you'd get away with it. Now this person has to smoke, but you can do this without them being a smoker.

Right picture that person in your mind. hopefully they smoke.

YOU are BETTER than them. You can quit, YOU are better then them. They Smoke, YOU are better than that person. They think you cant quit. THEY are laughing at you. YOU are stronger than they are, YOU will quit because you will NOT let them win.

Bingo. Quit.

[wassy78]

Well I still think I've done well today only had 2 fag's so 5 in 2 days going to try for 1 tomorrow . But fuck it's boring I have a cleaner to clean my shop lol I was that bored I even did it in my spare time lol

[DarylCooper]

My cousin had some battery fag thing, felt like a real fag and looked like one, even when u inhaled it was warm. Like £20 on eBay I think

[wassy78]

Yeh called e-lites m8 got one

[DarylCooper]

Ah, no joy?

[saxovtsmad]

say fuck it and keep smoking so i can scrounge one off you next time we meet lol

[wolf_gsxr]

We got our mate to quit. Possibly dangerous tho so if you die don't blame me. Cover your arms and chest in nicotine patches. ( we used8) get your favourite brand of cigarettes and start smoking. My mate. Went green, threw up, then passed out.. Doesn't smoke anymore tho lol
