Well done dude – you can do it!
You can be reassured that 5 years from now your chance of cancer goes to the same as the general population – a great benefit!
I should point out one bit of disinformation on this board. The patches increase your chances of quitting by about 2.5 – but only if you use them properly. Theres a very high failure rate when people start the patches… think to themselves ‘hah! This is easy – nicotine aint that addictive after all!’ And then quit the patches…. leading to acute nicotine withdrawal 🙂 This doesent make sense.
You either do it cold turkey…. or you use the patches as indicated FOR EIGHT weeks. Anything else is just placebo.
The patch went on after about half an hour after my last post!!! 😯 😯
Just come back from shooting with the kids and feel alot better.
Shooting the crap out of a target that look like small happy rodents was nice and relaxing I can tell you!! 😀 😀 😀lol… QED.
After 4 weeks you wanna wean yourself to the next lower patch, then 2 weeks later you go to the mildest strength for 2 weeks – if you foillow that programme you will have no nicotine withdrawal effects at all – just leaves (the still considerable) psychological effects.
When my mate tried to give up smoking I waded in to give him a hand. What I’d do is take his full packet of cigarettes and remove one, which I’d then insert filter end up my anus. After a few moments I would then remove said cigarette and put it back in the packet, being sure to shake it around.
My friend would then take the risk of smoking a cigarette that had been up my arse, a kind of Russian Roulette if you like. If he didn’t like those odds then he’d just have to not smoke.
Of course the first four times I did it I forgot to tell him, but eventually it seemed to work.
Plus Sharon has said if I last six months I can buy myself a PS3!!!
Think id rather smoke than have one of those steaming piles o` shite. 🙂
The thought of smoking a ‘fag’ thats been up your arse Neon, is almost enough to get me started again!

Days 3 & 4 : Still going well. No ciggies yet. Rather proud of myself really. There are still points in the day where the cravings are strong but at times like that I run off and do something, like cleaning or ironing or if Im in work I radomly move blocks from 1 pallet to another for no reason. But it keeps me occupied!! 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀 😀
