Do nicotine patches work or the chewing gum?

When i tred te patches they used to make me throw up and the chewing gum is nasty. Try one of them fake cigerettes thats wht id do

[Smits]

I'v heard good things about the gum. I guess the best way would be to get in touch with those quit smoking campaigns the NHS does, but saying that, everyones different, just find what works for you.

My Great Uncle had been a big smoker for a very long time. About a year ago though he decided to get a nicorette (plastic, fake cigerette) which gives you the nicotine minus the tar. He's now kicked the habit and doesn't even use it :)

dont buy any more....

It's not as easy though ^^ you can't just say "I'm not going to buy anymore"

Like sharon said, it's not as easy as that, they make you want to buy more. Even if you got rid of all your packets and hide all your money, you still won't be able to resist smoking. The best way is probably to count how many you smoke a day, then reduce it every day or week, depends how long you've been smoking for. My dad has been smoking since he was 13 which is bad, but he did that for three months last year by the time it was christmas he had one a day. After new year he just stopped. If he thinks he's needs a drag or something he uses chewing gum and does a task like going on facebook on mafia wars or something to keep your mind busy from it.

Best answer = Don't start ;) Had to be said.

Anyway tbh I don't smoke, bu I know mates who have used those fake ciggies, dunno if they work or ot though. I guess the good thing is they get rid of the tar soo :)

What if you got pressured into smoking it by someone older?

[Misawa]

Shouldn't feel pressured and whoever does press smoking on someone is a complete nonce.

Older people have tried to get me to smoke.

Never put one in my mouth, never mind smoked it ;)

don't make a plan, just do it! not like "i'll have my last one tomorrow..." you'll never get there:P
make sure you have things to keep you occupied and active, honestly cold turkey worked best for me.
