Here's the rules... When a newbie (non smoker with less than a year of smobriety) posts, they add +1 to the number... When an Elder (non smoker with more than a year of smobreity) posts they add -1 to the number You have to wait until someone else posts before you can post again When either +20 or -20 is reached then that team wins…(Show moreShow less)
Restarting chantix/ cutting pill in half? has anyone ever done this successfully? insurance won’t cover another starter pack.. i stopped taking chantix into the second month because the nausea was crippling! anyway- I was able to tolerate the half dose they start you off with without any problems. however- I can’t find anything conclusive…(Show moreShow less)
If as that pharmacist you spoke to said that the medicine isn't distributed evenly in the pill which is why don't cut it, it seems to me if you take it twice a day (the usual after initial start up), you will be getting all the medicine in the pill over the course of a day and lesser nausea-inducing strength so I would do it myself ... though I…
Nothing to report really. Just sort of lingering (and perusing) the site when I can. Reached out to Quit 4 Life yesterday as an additional resource through my employer. Hanging onto music as an outlet.
Sorry for the extremely late response, Barb. Happy Wednesday! I finally received my nicotine gum through Quit 4 Life...4 boxes to be exact. Tried it...it's not as harsh in my opinion as the lozenges in terms of the scratchiness factor...but I'm planning on going cold turkey after more thought rather than keeping the nicotine addiction going if…
The last couple of days.My stress level has been out of the world and it seems like whatever I did was not going right. I was so frustrated and it seemed that my withdrawals and slippery cravings were working overtime and against me. I almost slip and thought about buying a can and say screw this.But,I hung on with my nic mints and had to…(Show moreShow less)
I understand how you're feeling. I was on a roll for about two weeks. Everything that could go wrong, did. Last Wednesday, I reached my peak of frustration and thought about smoking for a few minutes. Logic tells us it's not going to fix anything, but in the moment it seems like a plausible solution. It does get easier with time, but I don't…
Hi all, Happy Wednesday!! It’s only two weeks until Christmas!! Are you in the spirit? The square looks so nice decorated. Happy hump day too. It’s something not to be bothered by the nicotine demon!! We no longer are addicted to cigarettes!! The horror of addiction is gone!! Enjoy your new life!! Namaste N. O. P. E.
Hi, Happy Tuesday!! And happy holidays!! It’s a wonderful time of the year!! We are in a season of hope!! What is everyone doing today? I am still keeping them away from my face!! For many years I didn’t realize that if I didn’t go buy some, light them up, and puff on them, I’m not smoking!! Cigarettes are a horrible killer!!…(Show moreShow less)
For many years I didn’t realize that if I didn’t go buy some, light them up, and puff on them, I’m not smoking!! Ain't THAT the truth. All we need do it is keep them away from our face! Glad you have. Glad I have too!
I'm on day 44 and I thought I'd experienced strong cravings previously, but this one has my legs shaking. When it began, I popped a lozenge and I SWEAR that made it worse. Has this happened to anybody else?
Congrats I am a day behind you. But,it must be a crave cycle because the last couple of days. I have been a wreck emotionally,mad, frustrated,angry,on edge and a d*ick to my coworkers and I even been using more nic mints then I have and it may be caffiene ,just saw a post earlier where it can intensifies the symptoms and I been drinking an extra…
Today,I was very angry,frustrated,and depressed and taking things people said personal. I am on day 43 and I really need to apologise to a few coworkers tomorrow. So I am relieved to know I wasn't the only one losing it today.
Mark Twain said of smoking cigars “Quitting smoking is easy – I do it every day”. That pretty much sums up my relationship to quitting smoking. I started new quits at least once a month for the past decade. If you’re counting, that multiplies out to over 100 quits. I have been in a perpetual state of withdrawal. I have wanted to be a non-smoker.…(Show moreShow less)
