[annadomino]

Get her to her GP and try Champix, theleccy ones are but a poor substitute

[tinkerbell23]

Keep an eye on groupon they usually do them
On offer...

Cant remember if it was here or on fbook that i saw someone who saw their GP and came away with one of everything to quit- xx

Most importantly MrsM GOOD LUCK...x

[stokemaveric]

thanks anna i guess they are tablets,it is more of a physcological thing,she doesnt smoke a great deal,but these things are supposed to give the users a rush of nicotine and its as if they are smoking a real coffin nail...im glad i never had the urge to smoke...

[stokemaveric]

[stokemaveric]

[tinkerbell23]

Wonder if the hypnosis works?

I barely remember my dad smoking ..when i was about 3 or 4 he got a really bad flu and couldnt even move for days- not even for a fag and never smoked since- NOT that i wish that on Mrs M!!

Smoking cessation should have a service near you xx

[stokemaveric]

hypnosis tinkerbell???? hey i never thought of that...maybe she will forget my pin number as well lol...x

[tinkerbell23]

You could always speak nicely to the hypnotherapist!? Hahaha

Hey try anything!! Hypnosis, accupuncture, accupressure aswell as all the usual methods. X

[tinkerbell23]

Ps sure theres lazer therapy too x

A friend is using the fake cigarettes, he puffs, it lights up, he blows out "smoke" he says they are brilliant.

[annadomino]

Gave you THE answer, now I give up.

ord of caution about Champix, heard you can have word side effects from them.

Does your local Health Centre have a cease smoking clinic? If so worth a try there, they were very good with me and I managed to quit with their help, granted, I started again 6 months later but still.

I had an ECig (bought locally from our local discount shop- was only a few quid). It was ok, but it never took away the craving for the real thing for me.

[B00]

weird side effects- not word ones!

I tried Champix last year. It did reduce the cravings, however, it did take me to places I didn't want to go. I got terrible depression, so I stopped using it.
