I tried cold turkey.....wasnt very pleasant to be around apparently. Tried patches 2x 24 hr patches at a time and still chaffed a pack in a sitting at the pub. Finally had enough and booked hypnosis. Havent looked back no cravings no withdrawals nothing. (Woke up with a sore arse hahahahahahhahaha) but no smokes. You dont actually go to sleep are totally aware of your surroundings. Maybe twice a year i have a dream that i light up a smoke and wawake up pissd of with myself then realise it was just a dream, and alls good. Just a friendly reminder i spose. Anyway wifey also did it and a couple of mates all still non smokers.
The old boy did the same and hasn't smoked for about 19 years - it was pretty radical in it's day (going to hypnosis) but it worked ...
