You lot are far too deep for me lol
Furbs came on here to ask for advice and thats it and if iwas furbs right now i would be smoking 10 as im sure she must be stressed by the amount of not so great help you have sent her??
Furbs hun you can do it its a peice of paper with bad stuff in it put it down and if u feel u need one come suck on my tit lol
Love you baby

Nobody on here is qualified to advise - we don't know enough about Furby's medical history. People who have given advice, have given it based on their experiences and they won't have the same reactions as Furby will. She needs to get medical/specialist help.
Why do we need to know Furby's medical history? What could be in it that would be wrong to give up smoking? She's seen a GP who told her to quit. Ex-smokers are a great source of information, possibly better than a GP who has never smoked.

1) Set your self a target date to quit, and stick to it.
2) Tell someone (preferably a non-smoker) as this means you have to at least have a go at quitting.
3) If you fail do not berate yourself You will have learned something for next time. Go back to 1) asap.
4) Get help. The gum worked for me, but maybe you would prefer the patches. You are twice as likely to succeed with a nicotine substitute.
5) Clear house of all ciggies, lighters etc. This may not be possible if your partner smokes. If he does ask him to try to give up with you.
6) Reward yourself. I kept a jar with all the money I had saved in it. Every so often I would buy something with it, a CD or something. Avoid buying alcohol though, as you may end up smoking again.
7) You may not succeed first time, but don't be disheartened, try again.
8) Don't ask yourself questions like "Why can't I give up?" Try the question "What would be better about my life if I did give up?" Focus on the positives!
Good luck!
