It has been 206 days for me!  Hard to believe it has been this long, 206 days ago I was a die hard pack a day smoker and now, believe it or not, do not have a desire to smoke again.  Those of you just starting out - it can be done.  Really you can enjoy life so much more and not be a prisoner to the habit.  Good luck to you all, Chantix is a wonderful start, hang tight and take one day at a time.  It is soooo worth it, it is hard at first, but each day gets easier, I don't think about cigs everyday anymore, it is so freeing!  Be positive....

I tried Chantix and had the WORST stomach aches.  I even tried taking with food, that didn't make a difference.  I also had trouble getting to sleep - it didnt affect my dreams like the patches did.  But I do know when I was taking it I had less of a desire to smoke, but know too it was REALLY hard to stop smoking cold turkey on the 7th day (at least thats what I think it was)......but I HAVE GOT TO QUIT!  I refuse to go on any anti-depressants and don't feel that trading 1 habit 4 another like using the patches or gum will be helpful.  I have that addictive personality......blahhhhhh!  So I think my only choice is to go cold turkey?!

Oh.....and I had the gas too.  I tried Tums and Pepcid.....it helped a little, but not enuf.
