My quit date is Saturday. How will it be? I'm worried. My boyfriend is quitting same day as me - he with the patches and I am using Chantix. I wish there was a way to sleep through the whole quitting experience and wake up un-addicted!
It will be fine, follow Chantix instructions and just keep reading here on EX. Quitting smoking is a welcomed freedom fron an addiction..... nothing to dread. Many have quit, join us...
I understand your worry. I was terrified too. I found that every morning when I took a deep breath of fresh air it was more and more relaxing. Every minute with out cigarettes is a freedom beyond compare when you look back at what you were chained to before. Best of luck to you both, and don't forget the community is here for you. Nothing helped me more than having them with me.
