Just started day 7 of Champix. It deffo reduces the urge to smoke and takes away the pleasure (hit) when having one. Have cut down on the amount I smoke without really trying, 5 more days to quit day.

Not noticed any side effects of medication so far, have to double the dose tomorrow.

funny that James said he wanted to tape my mouth up as wellenfact he tells me that all the timewhen he has a right go telling me if god wanted me to smoke I would have a chimney on my head so I hit back with and if god wanted him to drive everywhere he would have been born with wheels for feet.I used that ziban MAN those really went for meI was shaking and could not walk right and some clown asked me if I had a good night the night beforetook ages for the penny to dropso for me its cut down as Im not going to kid myself on cos I know Im not able to just stop.if I cut down and take it from there who knows

I will keep checking to see if side effects kick inwell after every thing Ive tried Im stupid enough

I went dead high when I took Zyban, was dead good at the time but when I stopped then it was a real downer

they say a lot of people sufferd one way or another on those tabs

from some of the pickies ive seen ,think of your lungs as a lace curtain
and then hang them out for acouple of week, stand back and admire
how hangin they look with all the crap thats attached to em if that dont work .stay in grimesville u/k

take it you have never smokedwhen you start smoking as a kid you dont know the risks and before you know it your hooked and its not so easy to give the weed up and its not for the lack of trying hell I knowsome people are stronger than others and me well Im holding my hands up Im a hopeless case but I wont stop trying to give upeven if it means starting off cutting down Im not going to kid myself on and say I can quit just like that cos I cant

hey kate

tried the patches, tried the inhaler, hated the chewing gum, went on champix and wow do they work, still have the cravings to a point, mostly when i think about it

ONE thing ive noticed is that i hate coffee, saw a friend today that i haven seen for a few weeks and she was well impressed id stopped, she asked if i wanted a brew, yeah tea please what u drink 20 million cups of coffee a day was her reply, but for the last few days i cant touch coffee, hate the stuff
also anyone who smokes, hate them (sorry kate), but cant do with the smell, makes me feel sick, must be the champix
but hey still no fags, good job really they have got rid of the smoke rooms at the airport


gill

pay day tomorrow so guess what I will be buying am going to try my hardest to quit Im on 30 a day so no wonder Im breathless now at timesso from now on I will time it to a ciggie a hour not much I know but its a startif I can go longer I will, Ive had 8 this morning till now so lets see how I go

just finished my fag since last post but its so hot dancing with the hoover trying to keep busy to take my mind off ciggies the place is all nice and clean now

I have a prescription for Champix but haven't got it yet. Am I right in thinking you can smoke when taking it? Doctor didn't really explain it in too much detail.

you can do it Kate, i cut down first, maybe try limiting yourself to 25 ciggies a day for a week then 20 a day for the next week. Then maybe don't smoke in the house etc,
Don't be too hard on yourself at first, if it takes you 6 months, so what the end result is what matters.

woohoo keep going Gill, how's your OH doing? mine is still smoking although I do think he has cut down, cos he's going outside to smoke now, its not nice standing outside in the rain
