Heather great job hitting it straight on. Some things we do have to do but i had one thing I avoided for 2 months because I wanted to be strong enough to destroy it when I faced it. Jennifer welcome to the world of Chantix. The best side effect is that you wont smoke. I loved my vivid dreams and miss them now. I woke up 5 or 6 times a night but I lived with that. Well looks like you will have the treat of be a non smoker this Halloween.

Good for you Heather! That is a good sign that your quit is going to stick because you are very determined and have great will power!
  Jennifer welcome to the site and the group and the wonderful world of Chantix, I think everyone here has had one side effect or another from dreams, to bloating and bad gas lol but none of them are worth giving up quitting! I'll take short term crazy over long term lung cancer any day! lol
  Spunkie how are you feeling?
  Brian & Libby...fast approaching 1 year I am so excited for you both!
  I have been feeling crappy for about 2 weeks, it is the weather, season change and ragweed, I am also highly allergic to mold and the wel falling leaves do not help that at all. I just want it to be winter already!! lol

  128 days! Woooooo
  I have stopped nicotine for 4 months, 6 days, 10 hours, 4 minutes and 53 seconds (128 days).I've not smoked 2568 death sticks, and saved $1,097.35.
  I've saved 8 days, 22 hours and 2 minutes of my life.

HEATHER, If You Feel That You Can Make It. Then Go Get Em Tiger..... JENNIFER, The Mood Swings Might Be Due To The Chantix, I Was Just Lazy. But If The Vivid Dreams Are A Problem Then Take The Chantix Earlier On In The Evening. SPUNKIE, We Love Your Paying It Forward 🙂 Way To Go HEATHER, I Knew That You Can Do It If You Had That Much Power Behind It. Well My Fience Hasn't Quit Yet And I Am Always Smelling Him And Saying To Him Ewww You Stink. You Are Determined Like I Was 🙂 JENNIFER, I Loved My Dreams I Wish That I Can Get Them Back . KRISTEN, Congratulations On Yout 4 Mnths 🙂 I Have Been Quit For 7 Months And 9 Days 🙂 SMOKE FREE AND LOVING TO BREATHE 🙂

The past few days the dreams were just vivid, last night though it was actually intense. At least 3 times I was in an elevator that was dropping and I woke up each time I was about to hit the bottom. I'm going to take my evening pill earlier tonight. My mood has definitely improved today and I am smoking much less. Even when I'm smoking I end up not wanting it half way through. 3 more days until I quit for good. Thanks for the advice!
