    I tried them when I was 19 and couldn't for the life of me figure out how people got hooked on them :confused: I pretended to smoke a few on nights out (not inhaling them) and never smoked since. That was only a couple of years ago :D

    Seriously though how do people get hooked on them as they taste like sh1t?

    I'm going cold turkey. I'll be off them 2 weeks on Monday. The first 3 days are absolute hell but after those first 72 hours, all nicotine is gone from your body and it's a battle of wills.

    Keep yourself busy.

    For my first week I was constantly making work for myself to distract me and to quell the cravings and it worked.

    After that first week the cravings subsided and everything seems to be fine.

    Alcohol is a huge huge challenge but it's very doable to go without smoking for a night when you're drinking.

    Personally, I'm not the most dedicated person but giving up smoking is probably the biggest thing I've ever decided to do.

    With the money I've saved, I've stuck it in a jar and by the end of the month I'm gonna blow it all on a treat for myself for the hard work done.

    I can feel my breathing slowly coming back to normal now. Food tastes better, I don't smell, my teeth haven't really got that yellow sh*t on them anymore, lack of phlegm in the morning and generally not tasting a like a fcuking ashtray.

    Seriously, this can be done. If you want it bad enough, it can be done.


    I agree with all of the above. the breathing etc. im off them a month this tuesday!! .. im doing the same with the money jar. going out is defnitely the hardest bit :O(
