I'm on day 20 today so feeling pleased with myself. Last 3 days iv been cold turkey and not been using nicotine patches. Still using my electronic ciggie but it's 0% nicotine. Must admit I do feel better already. I had a horrible cough prior to stopping. This has now stopped. My skin and hair also feels and looks better. My advise to everyone is to keep at it . It does get easier as time goes on .

Ah sorry to read Blueyes65 that things haven't worked out from last year - but thats it, never give up quitting - perhaps create a new post to get the support, help and advice from members at the same stage of your journey and stay close to us.

PS Be very careful not to overdose on the nicotine with using both patches and vaping as it is very likely to happen....
