i gave up about five six years ago. I bought a 1.89 plastic fag from asda called Crafe Away nothing special but ya puff on it and it relaxes you when you inhale really only air and gives ya something to hold in your hand. It worked for me. Try give it a go. Good luck anyway  |

I gave up a year ago because so many people wouldnt meet a "smoker" lol... all I used was a packet of fruit polos and a packet of mint polos.
Every time you want a ciggy, have a mint/fruit polo and try to concentrate on something else. After a week its second nature and you are well in your way.
Good luck mucker

Give yourself a treat, buy something for your hobby, buy something nice for yourself, and remember it was the fag money that bought it for you. Do this now and again, it will be well worth in the long term, not smelly, no dry hair/skin, yellow teeth, no hanging around outdoors looking pathetic |

Good news - after 7 days the physical cravings will have stopped and most of the nicotine will be out of your system
That was the hardest part - what you need to focus on now is overcoming the habit - the way I did it was to do all the things I would normally do when smoking - and tell myself how much better it was without the fags.
7 days is quite an achievement - keep going... |

When I was in the RAF, I tried packing up using patches for about 5 years issued to me by doctor (Station Medical Officer). Then one day the SMO told me to report to the Health Nurse and she sat me and we chatted (counselled me) and I had to keep in contact with her every other day and especially if I felt the urge. That support was critical....having someone to talk to and it was the easiest thing to do.....talk. Unlike previous occasions, I knew that if I was to have just one cigarette, I'd be hooked again....so in short, If your mind is sorted and you don't have a quick drag....even one drag...it can be done. Be strong, you'll never regret it. Good luck |

Quit three years ago after noticing patch was attached to jeans and not my arm, figured ain't had a craving all day so don't need patches any more.
Was on 30 a day first time I quit then went to rolls went up to 40 a day till three years ago.
Sounds werid but if u can go to a sanua for three days straight ,u will sweat out all nicotine which will make quoting easier |
