Nicotinell. Any ex smokers used it?
Great for the first few tabs. Really gives you a nicotine buzz, but then it just becomes like ordinary chewy.
Very tasty the licquorice flavour i must say, but now totally uselss as an expensive replacement for the snouts.
Recommendations anyone?
11 days and it's starting to look good apart from feeling like a sack of old shite.....toxins escaping from my body according to the gospel of old mother GROWLER. ::)

She is right. I felt pants for a couple of weeks. And then seemed to be constantly ill as nicotine kills off germs.
I didn't use an replacement therapy as you then just have to give them up. The only one I did ever find that gave me a hit was the microtabs. Those and normal chewing gum.

I think you are meant to stick them to your arm, not eat them! sad24:

I know a guy that chain-chews them ? quite disgusting ? and he gave up two years ago! God knows what the stuff is doing to his teeth/gums/stomach?
Mrs. Barman had good results with the patches (mind you she started again and is still smoking so not that good). Much better than nasty gum?

The patches gave me terrible nightmares! Then I made the mistake of having a ciggie whilst having one stuck on. I passed out at the station. redface:

I've had to come home early now anyway.
The most atrocious migrane has started....no pain, never is, just rapidly disappearing vision. First one I've had for months.
Who actually is the soft shite that reckons fags are bad for you again please? rubschin:
My quack should be giving out prescriptions for boxes of 200 of them imo, to be taken 20 a day, plenty to alcholic drink, plenty of rest, and come back in a fortnight if the symptoms haven't gone for a repeat prescription.

That is the nicotine withdrawl kicking in. Go to bed. If you're asleep you aren't thinking about smoking.

When I tried to give up some years ago I found I was wearing a patch on each arm, chewing gum and still smoking 40 untipped a day ~ I felt no different but my work colleagues said I was rather "loud" and would I mind not chewing all day. One concerned director, noticing the patch on my arm asked if I had had an injection.
I figured it wasn't worth the effort.
Some years later when I was told No Heart Op unless you stop smoking I stopped immediately and never looked back. The sod of it was the heart bypass failed to "take". I have stayed off the fags but still miss 'em.
