Smoking advice "Help Needed"

[Graham Payne]

Honestly not a single puff from a cigarette has occured from either of us, ( it is bloody hard though,)
Many many thanks to all of you for your encouragment it really helps.
To others who are thinking of giving up the "Champix" tabs are working for me big time,
I'm a very weak willed person and they really help me. If I can do it anybody can.

Congratulations.....keep it up, my late wife and I stopped 30 years ago, I know that if I had not quit I would not be around to-day at 81.

Cheers,
Glan

hi Graham,hope your doing OK on the no smoking regime.I have'nt had a smoke since March but I must say I still have'nt got rid of the craving.I love to play music and have a drink and a smoke but since packing the smoking in I have'nt played any music or had a drink in the house.My wife is having a get together tonight so I got out of the way and had a few beers.anyway I was having a pint and somebody had left a cigarette packet with about six in it,I'l have that and I'l give it a go later.I went outside and smoked half of the ciggie the next thing I was staggering around dizzy,just like when you had your first smoke.This has cured my curiosity and I will not be taking up the weed again!!!
Regards.

Hi Jim, Well done.
still no puff to date,
I stopped the "Champix Tablets they seemed to make me feel unhappy, how sad is that ?
With giving up smoking and them, one had to go, I will say they helped me through the first 4 weeks no real cravings that I could'nt handle
I just feel that something is missing in my life, its really weird , suppose a bit like going into a pub and having a
" Gin & Tonic " with no "Gin" , as I said, really bloody weird.
We will persevere. Hopefully .
Thanks to all of you for all your support. It's much appreciated by both of us.

Hi Graham, its been 4 years for me and the missus now after 54 of smokos ,still have the urge but it gets better with time. and when you see someone else smoking you can say poor bugger look at him.that was me not long ago. I understand that it takes 5 years too get the old lungs back to normal so keep it up and take a nice vacation with the savings next year .

[Graham Payne]

Hi Neville
My wife has spent her cigarette savings already ( and mine )
Something wrong somewhere but where would we be without them
Agrhh

[Dennis McGuckin]

Her indoors has been off them now,after a scare and visit to emerg, for TWO MONTHS.
And I am still alive. Although there has been a few close calls!!!
Den.

After quitting the ciggies in April 1969, I used to sometimes dream that I was back on them again, was feeling annoyed with myself, but then on waking up, was pleased again. It was a bad bout of influenza, which helped me quit. nearly said a bad flu, but have to be careful, there are some jokers on here you know !
