I actually have finally gotten past the furthest point I made it quitting before! (I always caved by the morning of the second day). Last night I had some bad urges, but hubby was very supportive, as were people here, and I got through them. Had some trouble sleeping last night, but did finally get some good rest, and when I woke up today, the physical urges were mostly not there again... *Why* is night time so much harder??? lol

I think the Chantix is great! It isn't helping as much as I'd hoped, as I am still getting physical cravings/urges/whichever you want to call them. But they are much less than cold turkey, or even with NRT. And the big thing is that my headspace is much better. My mind doesn't want the cig, just my body..that is something I can deal with.

Thanks for all the support so far everyone, you all can be proud of helping out!

PS: I meant to say how great my hubby is being, too. He is not ready to quit, but when I got home last night, he had been having seizures all day (not unusual). Still, when he wanted his next cig, he went all the way downstairs to have it on the back mud porch just to help me out! Made me very nervous, as the last thing I want is to deal with a seizure on the stairs and falling all the way down. But he is being very supportive. My secret hope is that he wants me to succeed so he can decide to quit too! But shhhhhh I don't want him to know that, cause I do know he has to be ready to quit.
