    I have managed to go without cigarettes for the last two days and after 22 years of smoking it's no mean feat.
    I had to share in the way that I have done this.
    I have started on 2.4 mg nicotine electronic vaping cigarettes.
    No tar, smoke, Carbon Monoxide or any other associated chemicals - and it's the dogs ********
    I have no craving to light up a normal fag, in fact I dont want one at all.
    This is a revelation to me - I can have my kick of nicotine without the associated crappy tar, smell and chemicals.
    I can also smoke anywhere - as it's only water vapour that is exhaled!
    The cost saving is also amazing - I spent about £130 per month on fags (Now it will be about £20 per month on refills that have the same effect.

    This is the most amazing stop smoking thing I have used (tried gum, patches e.t.c.)
    I felt that I had to pass this on - if you want to try it send me a pm and I will try to give you some advice.

    By the way the NHS do not recommend this as a way to stop smoking because you are still using nicotine - how wrong are they!
    I am a hardened smoker and I still don't want a normal fag - I'll stick with my vapestick thanks!

    Well done Rabb and good luck. I gave up over a year ago with the help of chewing gum. One of my mates is on the electronic fags and swears by them too. I bet the Treasury and cigarette industry is squirming at the lost revenue from so many switching to the electronic substitute. Some one told me that over 1 million people are now using them. Keep it up

    For a moment I thought the thread was about 2 strokes.

    Only kidding. Good on you for making this big decision.

    I used to smoke 30 - 40 a day for 18 years and I quit 6 years ago when I found out my wife was pregnant with my first child and never looked back. I have my moments when I would like one but apparently this never goes away.

    I used a fake ciggie type of thing that you used like a real one, worked a treat. Patches were crap.

    Good luck
    When it's your time to go it's your time, so don't let it catch you.

    Yep I agree the patches are crap - I could never get them to light properly!
