Paul, I am exactly like you. I have tried everything including acupuncture, hypnotherapy even ' husband therapy '... he took me to the Lake District and left me in a field (in a caravan) it was in an isolated spot....no shops...no pubs....it didn't work. I do want to quit, I really really do....so if you find a way that works for you please let me know. Beryl x who's Father came from Hampshire. :>))

Had accupuncture for pain relief and it works.Gave up smoking 12 years ago through will-power alone. You have got to really want to give up the dreaded weed before anything works.

Just sent you a PM paul :~D XX Sioux

thanks for the replies, i am determined and i can do a few days but then it just consumes me. i cant think of anything else apart from smoking and i hate myself the moment i give in and smoke. i also justify it to myself, 'oh i'll only smoke at weekends' or 'i'll only smoke when im out drinking'. all rubbish and i know it! need to find something, maybe i'll move to california, its banned there i think! paul....

Hi Paul, my commiserations in your trying to stop smoking! I tried everything, including Acupuncture which was great. I felt wonderful and stopped..for a month. But it is up to you. What worked for me (after 40 years smoking) was joining a self help group. Best of luck. XX BC

Its expensive too, my hubby had daily sessions at 40 euros a time, I think it was the cost that made him more determinedlol

Hi Paul, My husband had it and gave up with acupuncture,but I have to say he was also determined to give up,so will power had alot to do with it too. Best of luck Roxanne x

Paul - I used it for stress migraines. Was very cynical but at stage that I was willing to try anything. Took about 4 sessions to work I now go once every 6 - 8 weeks for a booster. £30 per session. T.O.R.

after recently failing for the 20 millionth time to stop smoking im thinking of giving acupuncture a bash. i've tried literally everything else! anyone had any joy this way? any idea on cost?thanks, paul ....

Paul not had it for smoking but something else and it never worked on me.
