Chantix is working for me

I am on day 18 of Chantix and day 11 of not smoking.

I am extremely excited.

 Hopefully we nutters will not always be strangers

Community of people who raise backyard fowl?

I will admit that Chantix worked to stop the cravings. But in my case it intensified my depression to the point of lying on my bed in a fetal position and bawling like a baby. Just be aware of potential side effects . Good Luck.

I am sorry you suffer from depression.  I highly recommend yoga and practicing mindfulness.  A lot of things are mind games and both of these two things mentioned above help to beat the mind game.

Hi Mark!

Backyard fowl, yes.

A little bit of everything.

Hello everyone!

I am still smoke free.

I successfully stopped smoking because of Chantix.  It has been a little over 9 months and I don't miss smoking at all.  Best of luck to you.  You can do it!

I highly recommend these magical blue pills...but I highly recommend taking them when you have it made up, in your mind, that you are quitting.

I will never smoke again.
