Reply to: God I would love a cigarette

The great solution I found which worked for a lot of people is :

Allen Carr's Easy Way to Stop Smoking

You smoke all the time you're reading the book and by the time you've finished it, you would have had your last cigarette, 95% success rate!!!

I was still smoking at the end of it. But I did find it very helpful.

I don't think I could have eventually stopped without applying at least one of the strategies in that book.

A long hot bath with lots of bubbles can work wonders

Taps get stuck up your nose those.

Thanks Dave

I don't normally drink or smoke for that matter, I was just in a lot of pain and know when I come off pethidine I'm yuk.

Cheers

Yep, it will. Will help you relax and smooth out the comedown from the Pethedin.

Again though, Alchohol and Valium dont mix well. If it was me I'd lay off the booze for the next couple of days until you feel like you are back to normal.

On top of that, smoking can increase the rate at which Valium is eliminated from the body and reduce it's effectiveness so lay off the ciggies as well if you can.

Maybe valium will help??

Can I slap your face?

You know, just to practise for when you do have an overdose?

I won't. Had the meds at 7am or so, and valium is how they detox the junkies.

Are you being rude?

How long have you known me?

Of course I'm being rude!

[Lucy]

Lucy?

I've got something for you to hold...

Lucy, if you had a pethedine injection and not the tablets then drinking alchohol is a bad idea. It can make the side effects of the pethedine, including muscle spasm and tremors, much worse.

Never found a way to get down after pethidine?

Never found a way of getting a Cunning Plan to work

Oh well, there's always the agony booth to look forward to...

When your tail falls off this time, can I have it?

I need a decent draft excluder!

[Lucy]

I've found that too...

[Churchill]

I'll be fine. My cunning plan isn't working...

Oh, ok.

[Lucy]

Seriously, are you ok?

I'll be fine. My cunning plan isn't working...
