Well Done Trace!!! 

I would love to give up once and for all, I've done it for a period of 5 years in the past but foolishly started again. But, now that the kids nag me about it, and Flushie is constantly on my case about it too, I feel it really is time to give it some serious effort.

Was it the patches that worked for you in the end? I can't remember you saying that you used anything else.

Thanks Jane.

I used the patches for two weeks.  That's all I needed.  I felt a fraud not smoking but still having nicotine in my system, so I stopped putting them on. For those two weeks I used them, when I got a craving I rubbed the patch, probably didn't really do anything, but had a nice placebo effect for me!  lol

I also read Allen Carr's book, good read.  Don't know if it really helped me or not because I had effectively already stopped smoking when I read it.

I'm actually still stunned at how easy I found it to stop, it must have been due to the patches.  If you get your prescriptions free, get them off the doctors.  I've got 4 or 5 boxes upstairs that I got and then decided not to use.

I suppose I should sell them, or something.

Go for it and good luck.

Hello,

I've been on the patches, day 17 now and pretty good.

If you want to use them, you should be able to get 4 weeks worth for the cost of an NHS prescription by visiting your chemist. No need to pay the £18 per week. I was about to pay and the chemist told me I could go on the programme through them, without having to go to my GP. So I pay £6.65 for 4 weeks, over 12 weeks this is nearly a £200 saving.

Good luck,

Eoan

It's a really good idea.

Although the patches are much cheaper than fags, the cost still puts many off.
