Hi there,I'm not sure if you can use both together as it may be too much nicotine for your system,if you use nicotine e-liquid aswell as patches which also contain nicotine.I'm also trying again tomorrow I'm using the e-cig as I can't use the patches I'm allergic to them. Good luck on your quit & a happy smoke free new year xxx
Hi Supermum
Good on you for not giving up on quitting, and thank -you for your honesty
I am not sure it is a good thing to use patches and e-cig together either, but have not used either so hopefully someone who knows more about it will comment
Let us know what day you start and we will be here to support you along the way
Maybe you and Lizzie can do this together
Hi, best of luck with your new quit. I wouldn't use both, you will only need the ecig. Go to the proper shop for them and get all info you can. I smoked 40 a day for 25 yrs and only needed the ecig. 14 weeks off fags, I just vape. It's not easy but it is do- able. Feeling so much better,
Congrats Richella👏 I'm right behind ya💃🏿

Hiya Richella and welcome to quit support😊
Wow 14 weeks is fantastic, well done👏🏼
Thanks for your good advice and great to hear you're feeling so much better. Wishing you a happy and healthy New Year🚭🚭
Hiya super mum and welcome to quit support😊
I think one or the other would be better or you may get too much nicotine. As you did very well to quit for 4 months before, you know you can do it. This site can make a huge difference to staying quit, so good luck and stay close. Wishing you a very happy and healthy New Year😊
Hi Supermum, I'm sorry it didnt work out for you last Year BUT, we are in a new Year now so lets get you sorted and smokefree eh
Patches are a great form of NRT but, sometimes you need a bit of extra help, like at stressful times etc If you go to a smoking cessation at your doctors for instance, you will be allowed 2 NRT products to help you, so you can use your e-cig for these times or maybe just try using your e-cig and see how that goes
I found my hardest times were at the weekend cos I wasnt working and had more time on my hands so, if this is the case for you too, maybe just put the patches on at the weekends if you see what I mean
I would really like you to make a quit smoking plan cos this dosnt just help you in the early days, but could also help in the later days too If you have a look at the Pinned Posts to the right of your post, you will see it If you need any help what so ever making your quit plan, then please just shout out gal
Mum, you've done it before the only difference is, that was a practice run and this time your going for GOLD So try to think what made you light that first cig and think of a way to get around it if it happens again Please just ask if you need help with it
Good luck Mum and hope to speak soon

Good luck for the 27th super mum! Make sure u check in the forum every day it really helps. Are you getting any NRT from the doctors? I am seeing a cessation advisor every two weeks now it's so helpful. 😎👀
