Doubtfully Yours
There's a person in my place of work that tried the electronic cigarrette and has had tremendous success with it.
I sincerely hope you conquer smoking and that your health improves.

No, slept most of the day. The battle continues. DY will check out the electronic cigarrette, Terry had suggested smokless cigarrette's. Gum, patchs, and other things don't work with me. Seems Cold Turkey is the only way. Taint easy they call to me....

The people I have know that were most successful went cold turkey. The person I sit next to at work was smoking hourly and chain smoking at the pub, and had done so for 25 years. He gave up cold turkey 6 months ago due to health concerns with very trouble. It comes down to how much you want to stop. If you are completely convinced that you have to and want to, then cold turkey is possible.

Quentin, good luck, also since smoking was a habit, you need to form another habit, food is great, but be prepared to put on weight for the first few months, taking up walking or running will also help, rember form rotines, and walk every evening if you can and breath deep.....change your funiture around too, it cant act as a trigger that way, and let us know how you going

Here in UK we can get Champix on prescription - they're great - after 8 days or so you really just dont want to smoke
Yep. My sister tried the Champix and it helped her enormously. However, depending on where you live, it can be quite expensive. Most insurances don't cover "smoking cessation" products, even if they're prescription medication.
