Here I am trying yet again to quit... I used chantix last year to quit and was doing really well, till my husband who is also a smoker and was on the chantix stopped taking his without my knowledge and started coming home from work with cigarette smoke on his mustache.... Then I had a really stressful day and he suggested I have just one.... You know the rest... It's kinda like potato chips after over 20 years you can't have just one... So here I am again, re-starting the chantix...the last time I was smoking so little I stopped before I had been on it for 2 weeks...and it was a breeze. This time I went past the two week mark, I was cigarette free yesterday....and it seems harder. I think the chantix works better if you stop in the first 2 weeks, after that I think you have passed the mark. I am having cravings this time, but keep telling myself and my husband, it will pass...I also went out and got us some hard candy to suck on to try to get past the cravings. I really want it to stick this time! Any support would be very welcome!!! I am doing this for myself for health reasons as well as to show our children that I can be a good role model and that they need to stop smoking now before it's 20 years later!!!
