My first attemp - I went cold turkey and failed miserably. Then went onto patches - didn't work. I lasted through the day and 'rewarded' myself in the evening by taking the patch off and having a smoke. I know I'm rubbish.

So have gone to the smoking clinic at my dr's and they suggested Champix as I have tried almost everything else over the years. I am on day 5 now and actually don't feel like I want to smoke as much. I also haven't experienced any adverse side effects yet. Which is good news. I'm moving house this weekend so I am aiming to stop completely either Tuesday or Wednesday next week.
