Twinkie, I love the Chantix ! It has blocked that beast, I just know it. I finished up my month on Tuesday, if I feel any difference in the next few days, I'm running out to refill the script asap. I feel ok, but I'm not taking any chances. Chantix got me to a point that I didn't think was possible for a crackhead like myself,lol.

You might have to be a baby boomer with doper connections. Firesign Theater routines were a big thing in the late 60's, early 70's.

LOL, Twinks, yeah, a lot of folks who were there at the time missed it. They were too stoned.

SK, I apologize for us baby boomers hogging off all of the best sex, drugs, and rock and roll. I blame Twinkie.

Haha Juju !
No apologies needed, there was actually ample sex, drugs and rock and roll left to us 70's freaks to dive into to : holding lighter up and swaying :

( yeah, still have lighters, have to light my bathroom heater, heh )

No kidding, Twinks. We had to rely on our friends telling us alll about it. Again. And again.

I remember going to see Led Zepplin at the Astrodome with my best friend, she was so excited, she partied out way too early,only made it into the bathroom and was stretched out on the counter top the entire concert,lol.
The funniest thing was that she wasn't alone in there either !

Back to our regularly scheduled thread . . .

JuJu-not ignoring you or anyone else. Just not much new to report.

I've really, really cut back on the cigs, and realize most of you have quit by now. What the heck is wrong with me?!

But I can certainly tell the difference in my breathing and such, by cutting back and that give me hope that it will hit me one day to completely stop.

I have a question for all of those who used Chantix to help you stop...are you still taking the Chantix? If so, how long have you been taking the Chantix. Or has your brain already "rewired" to not want to smoke? Just curious!

Seems I took it for about 2.5 months if I remember correctly. I don't think there is any "right" length of time to take it. Do what feels right to you, Oldtex.

If you are having small victories, savor them, Oldtex. Any day you win overall in the greater battle is a good day. Fewer respiratory illnesses this winter? Victory! Less severe colds? Victory! Less wheezing? Victory! Less hacking your lungs out even when you know you are not sick? Victory! Fewer cravings? Victory! You are in a fight to the death. Every victory you have makes you stronger. YOU are worth saving, and the person who can save you is in the mirror. Go look in the mirror and smile at victory.

Uhhhh ... if you get caught, you can pretend you are checking to make sure you don't have spinach caught between your teeth.

Oldtex and Nick, listen to the wise ole dawg; every little step helps. Celebrate the smaller victories; they'll lead to that gold medal eventually.

Oldtex, I took Chantix for 3 weeks, quit smoking entirely after one week and haven't had Chantix or cigarettes since. I still battle the urge to smoke quite frequently, but have never seriously been in danger of having one. Gotta keep going forward, not step backward.
