Anyone else given up? Ive just gone cold turkey no patches or anything. Hope I can keep it up. Cant sleep without fags though hence bein on here at 7am

bloody hell, sorry to hear that, sounds like you've really been through it in the last year, keep ya chin up, i know its easier said that done but you need to for yourself and those around you
I have been given up smoking for 5 weeks and 1 day

I was on patches for 7 days, then decided i didn't need them so stopped puttin them on and have been completely free every since! Get yaself some patches, if you do start feelin really strong for one, then you can put a patch on to help ya out! nowt worse than going back to it after giving up...i gave up for 9 weeks before then started again, until i reach 9 weeks and get past that point i wont running before i can walk if ya get me!
Good luck!
