Yeah I tried it and did stop. It blocks the receptors in your brain from requiring a fix.
I went abroad and ran out of the tablets and started smoking again after a couple of days.

Comparitive to the 10,000s ummm millions who die from some form of smoking related ? alcohol related ?
Your brain is a complex bit of kit, that normally is well balanced so if you fuck with its chemical make up, without understanding how this shifts the chemical balance your asking for trouble if you ask me.
Plus the Suicidal thoughts are no worse than 1000 other everyday drugs including the drugs that are supposed to stop those thoughts cause them in the short term
heheh
I think if ya aint got the will power, and you choose chemical you should expect some form of side effect, after all we don't know even 5% of what there is to know about the brain.

well thanks again one and all.
day 5 now and it turns out my house stinks of smoke - who would have thought the whole sense-of-smell thing is that badly affected?
can barely stay awake this week. wonder if these drugs are just sleeping pills? maybe that's how they really work, knock you out for a few weeks
