Hi john,and welcome to the forum,where you will get lots of help and support
Iv tried many times to quit like you,but feel every time I fail I learn something from it..mainly not to have that " just one "
I tried stopping using the e cig and know it works for some but felt I was still smoking.
This quit I kept the e cig nod have used it 4-5 times in 5 wks...for me it's a stand by,when things get tough
Have you tried joining smoke stop at boots...where they will give you loads advice,patches on prescription and weekly checks...that has worked for lots of quitters.
It's finding what works for you...keep reading posting and even ranting....youv come to the right place
big thanks i will look into that boots question you asked me
smoke stop at boots i did not know about that carolrose52 have tried patches
but that don't mean i would not give it another go
yes e-cigs you do still feel like you are smoking but i found it handy
as i had to find things to do with my hands apart from using keyboard this i found hardest and e-cigs helped with that a lot but if stopping helps the pains i am getting in my body every day hands legs feet arms back head then i am up for it and have to get fit again now looking for work at working links
got new e-cigarette (brand name removed) THEY ARE CALLED today to try again like i said
and thanks 2 Jenny for your comments i will keep it up this time
my girlfriend will just have to smoke in other room i let it go last time
then i was back on tobacco need to be stronger this time
this forum have helped me today
big thanks for your time take care big day tomorrow 27.02.2014 i stop then
after i try to sleep tonight been up since yesterday
and i won't change my mind by tomorrow been smoking today last bit
made sure i had nothing left in house only e-cigarette for tomorrow
