Hi Baz - sorry to hear you've had bad news. I'm afraid you aren't going to get much help with stopping crack here - this is about stopping smoking tobacco - though I guess many of the tips and tricks might work for crack too - have a read through past mails. The most common theme though is that there are no easy answers - you just need to stop and suffer - and remember NOPE - Not One Puff Ever.

Good Luck!

Hi Bad, life can be harsh can't it? It can be debilitating when you receive bad news and we all reach for a crutch in whatever form it comes. Beardychris is right in that this is possibly not the right forum for you however everyone on here is brilliant at emotional support and you will need that to break your habit. I'm afraid the only thing for it is to brave, bite the bullet, kick the habit and ride the wave that is quitting and that goes for whatever the habit may be. I wish you all the luck and hope things improve for you soon x

Hi Baz, sorry you've been through it lately but it's a step in the right direction that you've come to a support site. I have attached a link for you that you may find useful and that hopefully you can find a support group near to where you live.

Good luck with this, keep focussed and strong :)

Hello Baz, Sorry to hear that you are going through a tough time. Quitting is not going to be easy, however, with a strong mindset and determination you will succeed. Just take one day at a time, and try and stay strong.. Good Luck :)

Nicotine still I hear harder to quit than other drugs. Crack is not your friend...would you walk away from your enemy ... then do just that ... With help you can get ... see doctor and others that can help you get what you need. Awareness is great place to start. We do addictive stuff because we think we can't face something without . ... fear of being overwhelmed ... actually those things will not overwhelm you if you face them out knowing it will pass and there's good stuff later waiting for the brave you. All best wishes...you can do this. Xxx
