Good luck and let us know how you are getting on.

No advice as I'm not a smoker but I want to congratulate you for wanting to quit. I wish you all the luck in the world!

its called cycling and the scourge that is N+1

there was a huge gap ( 18 months) between stopping smoking and starting back cycling. thats the bit that confuddles me as i was skint then , and even skin+1er now.

I'm sure that there is a survey somewhere which says that those who plan to stop are less successful than those who just stop.
Don't wait until Sunday - stop today. See if you can!
(And more crap advice from a never-smoker will be offered later....)

A smoker has got to want to stop,& be happy about stopping.If planning to stop helps an individual,then do it that way.i appreciate this wont work for everybody,but most fail to give up,even after several attempts.It is ,supposedly,more addictive than heroin.

I agree with the wanting to stop and being happy to stop is another aspect the smoker needs to come to terms with.
As to "more addictive than heroin".....i dont believe it is physically, mentally maybe but i dont speak from experience in relation to Heroin.....all i know is stopping smoking is a "lifestyle change" as it is a long term habit ingrained in many of us which we have to come to terms with.
Good luck to ANYONE attempting to give up.

You are correct,it is a mental,rather than a physical addiction.

The mrs went paranoid and just a tad f##king scary on Zyban, she had to come of it, she finally managed with those nicorette things before moving onto tictacs which had a similar clip lid and helped the transition. She hasd now been stopped for three years. If one method don't suit try another it is worth it in the end.

 

[grumpyoldgit]

One friend of mine packed up about 15 years ago using the Nicorette chewing gum,he is still using 2 packs of it a day

When you give up smoking, very pretty women are more likely to want to kiss you because your breath doesnt stink. Motivation and all that.......

My god, I'd hate to see the women that would want to if I started smoking!!

In that case, do very pretty women prefer normal sized stinky breath men or ex-smoker, sweet smelling breath, fat b**stards?
