| Quote The Devil's Advocate="The Devil's Advocate"If you want to go down the e-cig route you’ll have to bear in mind that the ones that don’t look like real cigarettes are the best.'"
True!
I tried the e-lites, no good at all. Now on the ego-t ce6. This has cut my weed stick smoking down to virtually 0 after just a few weeks. I keep them (the cigs) on hand just in case, i also went through about 10-20 mini hamlets a weekend when on the lash, not had one for 3 weeks and the last tin of 10 lasted since 2 months.
Not completely off yet but getting there, saving a fortune though. People in my local are switching from the lookalike ciggy ones to the non lookalike ones, infact, my non lookalike ones.
[url=http://zainy.net/home/113-ego-t-vision-ego-clearomizer-ce4-promotion-kit-zip-case.htmlThe ones i'm using[/url $37.90 (£24.60) for 2 including postage.

| Quote Bullseye="Bullseye"Make an appointment at your Doctor's surgery. When I gave up 8 years ago I saw the Nurse who was helpful with advice and I got patches on prescription which really worked for me.
You still need a fair bit of willpower but if you really want to give up you will.
I never touched a cig for at least a couple of years after 2005, nowadays I can have the odd one occasionally but I've never slipped back into being a smoker. I can go months, even years without ever craving one.
Good luck.'"
Tried the patches but get arm ache with them

| Quote SaintsFan="SaintsFan"I smoked for 20 years, early days Regal, but mostly Malboro Lights. I have been using VIP e-cigs for a couple of months now and have never thought twice about returning to the coffin nails.
I have used Totally Wicked, a disposable just to see what they were like (given that they are now sponsoring a stand at Langtree Park!). They were fine and although the disposables are expensive (£6.99 for one!), their packs appear to be about average cost and they have both cigarette and cigar like e-cigs available with many flavours, including tobacco.
I use VIP. I have just now cut down the nicotine level from 2.4 to 1.6 and so am on track. They look like cigarettes, although they are a bit heavier due to the battery (and so take a little adjustment when it comes to handling them, but you would get used to them) and they come in two flavours: tobacco and menthol. I think there are just three strengths: 2.4, 1.6 and 0. It cost me £20.00 for a starter kit of one battery, one (PC) charger and two cartomisers (containing the liquid nicotine). I bought a second battery for £10.00. It costs me £10.00 for a pack of five cartomisers which is the equivalent of 100 cigarettes. The St Helens VIP vendor offers a free pack of cartomisers on each fifth purchase although other VIP vendors differ when it comes to offers (Warrington offers a freebie every tenth purchase).
I have never managed to stop the coffin nails at all in the 20 years I have smoked but using e-cigs has been perfect for me because what I missed most about smoking were the things not addressed by patches or gum or cold turkey, namely the holding of the cigarette, more often than not when reading or thinking! Obviously the nicotine is useful too!
I began by halving my coffin nail intake and compensating with e-cigs. After a couple of months doing that, I let go of the coffin nails and went over to e-cigs completely. Within a week I felt a ton better. I no longer cough, I am not out of breath when I run up the stairs or something, my sense of taste changed, which was a bit weird, and I have a better sense of smell (a mixed blessing!). I have saved an absolute fortune, which is valuable just now as I'm unemployed. I also find a lot of people asking me about the e-cigs, especially when I'm enjoying one while reading in the local Caffe Nero!'"
That's briilliant news thinking of trying these myself there's a shop in castleford that sells them might after go and check them out

My wife tried cold turkey, patches etc and always failed. She had one session of one-on-one hypnotherapy 7 years ago and has not touched one since she walked out of the door.
She swears by it, but I have a different take on it. When she tried patches and cold turkey, she was badgered by me and the kids to try, but she went voluntarily to the hypnotist because SHE wanted to stop for herself and was determined to succeed. I think the hypnotism helped (no question), but probably helped to enforce her will to cease smoking rather than was the cure all.

I had been 100% determined to quit several times before I tried the hypnotherapy.
