MariusC Posted April 11, 2012 Share Whats the cost of a course? Starter pack +-R300 and maintenance also +-300 but your Medical aid pays it in full Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Caerus Posted April 11, 2012 Share Thanks for the info I will also have to give it a try. Although I only smoke about 4-6 a day. I need to pack it up again, hate the fact I fell off the wagon. Stupid Stress Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tubehunter Posted April 11, 2012 Share Whats the cost of a course? Caerus I read this whole thread (yes ALL 25 pages!) and 2 years ago on this very thread you were able to quit for more than just a few months dude! You know you can do this already!

Guest Posted April 11, 2012 Share Starter pack +-R300 and maintenance also +-300 but your Medical aid pays it in full Dischem charged me R545 for the Starter Pack (not a Cell C one) and the 2nd months supply. But yes, Discovery paid in full.Ive tried Cold Turkey, Allen Carr, Nicorette etc.... this is the solution, I'm sure of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This I know, and I kick myself for starting again. Like I mentioned an extremely stressful situation and I just cracked. The last time around, the first few weeks were hell on earth, may just need to have a bit of extra help. I'm determined to knock this habit on the head.

Mojoman Posted April 11, 2012 Share Guys, Champix is the answer. Currently on day 9, dropped from 30 a day to 4 without hassles.By next week I'll be a non smoker.I sincerely hope you do make it but most people I know who have tried various pills, courses etc are back on the smokes.The only failsafe way to quit is to really want to quit and then realise that only you can control the habit.Granted there are days when I fancy a smoke but you just have to keep telling yourself you have made it this far so why falter now?5 minutes later that craving is gone! I also suggest going to your local hospital and seeing someone die from lung cancer, it makes you think twice...

fabes Posted April 11, 2012 Share Like mentioned before in this thread i also used the book by Alan Carr (Easy way to stop Smoking). I was desperate to stop as my son had just been born and got a huge fright picking him up and was kinda out of breath. So i bought the book thinking how could it ever work, he mentions in the begining of the book that you don't have to stop smoking when you start reading the book so i didn't... well 3 days later on the on 11 September 2011 the book had me so excited to stop and made me realise it can be easy if you adjust your mindset and i never looked back. I am now able to live a healthy lifestyle and since even bought a carrier/stroller that latches on the back of my bike and my son and I ride up and down the beach front in Pe most days as i have alot more time on my hands now Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm watching my mother at the moment with emphysema and it aint pretty, which is even more reason why I want to quit sooner rather then later.
