    I can hear those feet stamping from here, jo :rotfl: :rotfl:

    Have a look at quit7 dot com. Someone won one on here (when they cost about 80 quid, too :eek: ), which is how I got to hear about it.

  • OMG, what a week!

    Don't really want to talk about it at the moment (very teary still), but suffice to say that my best friend in the world died last week in his mid 30s. Never smoked, rarely drank and fit as a fiddle!

    Suffice to say, the nicotine monster was knocking in my head, but somehow I managed to keep it at bay!

    Taking each day at a time still - and work want me back in France next week again...... if I can't do this for good now, I don't think there'll ever be a better time!

  • Sorry for your loss newsgroup_monkey, if you can get through that smoke-free you can get through anything smoke free :)

    I think the thing that this thread has shown me is that stopping smoking is very much horses for courses

    You have to try everything until you find the method that works for you. No one method is better than any other, that's looking at it the wrong way round. There's a method for you, you just have to find it

    monkey - poor you. What can I say. Sounds trite, but if you can go through that and not smoke, you've done astonishingly well

    SkintButTrying, well done :T Alan Carr has done the job for lots of people on this thread. Keep popping in from time to time, it's good to hear peoples progress :)

    Monkey, oh I am so so sorry to hear your news :( what a bad time you are having. Well done on not giving in though, that shows how strong willed you are now on the smoking front. My thoughts are with you and your friends family :(
