 Two years is a fair trot. Don't be too hard on yourself. Get the patches/hypnotism/gum/whatever worked for you last time and start quitting again.

I haven't smoked in over 10 years and still think it would be a good idea to try one! But I know one would not be the end of it so forever vigiant.

Good effort though-everyday you keep going will make it harder to get off though!

Start NOW, chuck them away

 I have a Captain Black once or twice a year when on the sauce and never get the urge to start again. Just throw them in the bin Pete.

Fri, 2015-02-20 13:17

Used to share a house with a guy who said that he smoked 40 a day. Went to a hypnosis session and cut back to ~8 a day and after the second session gave it up completely. Might work for some people. It’s all in the head.

Fri, 2015-02-20 14:46

I used one of these things when I quit a few years ago, looks like you're sucking on a tampon but got rid of the craving after a couple of beers which was the main thing I struggled with trying to kick the habit.

Its not will power that's the problem Pete . .  . . its won't power. You just gotta say no. When you want a puff, think of Robs comments above, that should be incentive enough.

Tell your wife mate! Nothing worse than living a lie, and if you dont tell her when she finds out you have 2 problems!

1; Angry wife!

2; Still smoking

 From experience I know 

Good luck

 Give the ecigs a go, I was a stupidly stubborn smoker for well over 20 years, gave everything a go but it's the only thing that's worked for me. If you want any info pm me.

Smoking

Mon, 2015-02-23 21:19

bottom line is you've gotta really want to quit, any thing less and no drug, hypnotherapy, acupuncture or laser treatment will fix the problem permanently.

Everyone I know including myself who has seriously really wanted to quit has done so successfully and the half hearted ones have gone back to smoking after a period of time.

i know it must be tough - have a few mates who have made the journey
- if you are looking for further inspiration - read this report, should be enough of a jolt to make you want to quit!
