Well my minds more active than Steven Hawkins tonight since I'm on my third day of stopping smoking. Been smoking 15 years and as I'm skint thought it was a appropriate time to quit. Oh cold turkey time arrrggghhh...
... it sucks and I want a cig arrrrrrrrgggghhhhh
Know how you feel, i quit smoking (the good stuff) lol 3 years back, its the first bit thats the hardest, then you'll really start to hate it when other people smoke around you. I hate the smell.
You can do it, just ignore the temptations!

hit the nail on the head there mate
Yeah, I've tried to give up a couple of times and failed, I know how hard it is. Keep it up!
Using any type of patches/gum? or just will power?!!
lack of sleep/sweating lasted for bout a week last time i gave up.

Lucky for me then I don't smoke and type as this is dangerous lol smoke gets in your eyes at crucial airbrushing moments. Not good lol
Cheers for the support guys :d I'm knackered. Only got 2 hours sleep :cry:
the not being able to sleep will only last another couple of nights, just get rid of everything smoking related all ashtrays lighters etc, clean your ashtray out in car and put some nice smelly air fresheners in your car and give it a nice clean out, will make you like being in your car more when it doesnt stink of fags.

Luckily the ashtray was never used as I didn't want to make a mess of the car. Another reason for me stopping is that a burn't a massive hole in the back of my seat, reason being the end of my cig shot off and landed down my back, which I lent on and crushed int to seat :cry:
The problem mainly is that the majority of my mates smoke so I'm going into hiding for a couple of weeks, no more pub nights for a bit.
Once you give up your hate the smell of fags.

i dont no if i could will have too soon though
I was on the Champix tablets they helped. I stopped for about 6 months but they made you that crazy that you started smoking again
i've been smoke free for 6 week's now, got patches on prescription...
been told to read the alan carr book, but had a quick read through, and it tell's you to keep smoking while reading, so cant try that method myself yet lol
