Rozan :wacko: And why do you think it's not available in South Africa? Because it had some serious side effects which can also cause death! Sterkte. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
alloway65 10 Posted November 21, 2012 So the "cure" can be just as fatal as the smoking habit. We have clients who use Gold Plated Magnet Balls or Press Tacks placed at certain points in the outer ear to break the habit. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
booksallsizes 10 Posted November 21, 2012 Roza, try Champix. They're pills (on prescription) and they work like a bomb. The course is three months but you can take them for a lot less time too, if you feel confident enough to stop. I have now quit for 1 month (after a bad false start) and have not eaten more or had to stop socializing (except for the first week because I was in a mean mood) and can't bear the thought of having a cigarette... Only thing is... they can keep you awake at night at the beginning so don't take them too late in the afternoon. Good luck! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

lilythepink 11 Posted November 23, 2012 Wouldn't it just be cheaper to smoke band-aids? (Can't be more harmful, I guess, than taking strange medications?) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
booksallsizes 10 Posted November 23, 2012 Take as prescribed, as they can also cause death if you take too much. They nearly caused death the first week I stopped the fags - my poor other half nearly copped it! :razz: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
