Give and get support around quitting
I quit on March 9th @ 9:00 p.m., 2012! 5 days into it now, and have definitely had light headedness, temper tantrums (dt's), anger, depression, happiness, etc. all of the above. Today was much better! Yay, finally, and I keep hearing it gets easier! Please tell me it's true! Still on the Chantix for a couple of more weeks, I am hoping when I come off of it, that I won't have relapse. If anyone has any advise about coming off of Chantix, please let me know your feelings/side effects.
Thanks! March on!
My quit date is set for March 23, 2014 so I hope to be among those beautiful people who quite smoking in March of 2014!
I had my date set to January, but 6 days ago I finally quit smoking, is not easy... I just hope I can make it and not slipp up. Thanks!
My quit date was March 7th 2014 I am using Chantix so far so good.The support I get from the EX community is the best . When I think I need to smoke I come and read other success stories and it helps so much.Day 13 Just one day at a time. Can't wait for day 365! Thank you all Deb K
hello,
I quit yesterday, and I'm having a really hard time.

Day #2 in the life of a non-smoker (40 years smoking)
Went to bed at 7:30 pm last night, this really helps kill some of the withdraw stuff
And the real meaning or reason for this = to break up my habits
This is a topic I have spent a good deal of time on
Part of the exercise is to track when you smoke and what sets you off
I loved to smoke in the mornings, 4 cigs before I go to work
And one when I got there, so I figure I would try going to sleep
As soon as I could, have my stuff ready and get out the door ASAP
In the morning, get to work where very few smoke. On the job at 5:00 am !!!
Also took 4 walks yesterday and that seemed to help a lot
Will do the same today
My quit day ended up being March 18, 2014. That is 3 days ago. I am still holding on strong as a "quitter." I am doing the Chantix. Wish us all the best of luck.
We are here for each other. Happy that I found this site. It is nice that I am not the only one going through all these ups and downs.

My quit date was March 17, 2014 4:00 pm. I am not using any type of meds. I tried chantix and it caused me to cry all the time. I stopped it in February and restarted my quit in March. I pray to keep me grounded and I am thankful for my family.
