Hope it goes well.

I only smoked for a short time .... but managed to give up.
Wasn't easy at all ... and you really need to not give in when times get hard.

I used patches ... and man they gave me the weirdest dreams out .... after 2 weeks of that I couldn't handle it .... I was lucky in a way .... I got bronchitis just after that .... and didn't want to be near another ciggie.

Once over the first few weeks of no smoking ... it became easier for me.

Eventually ... the smell of other people's smoke actually makes me feel sick.

What i found hard was heading out with mates and drinking ... that was the worst ..... at one point I didn't go out for ages ... just to keep away from that sort of environment as it was too tempting to "have another one".

Good luck .... I hope you are successful.
