I am on day 4 of chantix am smoking a lot less because I am keeping track of when and where I smoke and why. Haven't got sick from the meds so all is good I hope. I know I will get plenty of support from this group because I did before.

thanks for the welcome. I have my list of reasons why I want to quit and carry them with me. The big ones are coughing and stinking. I have sugarfree candy and fruit and veg's ready.

Hi jnine -
No need to be scared, dear one... Nothing to be scared of...
We are all right here with you - just know that you can do this, one step at a time.
There will be tough times but none that you can't handle if you really want this.
Please read as many old posts as you can find time for... they kept me focused and grounded in my Quit. And those who went before me and took the time to share their experiences, taught me so much about quitting, and about the journey.
Hold on tight... let the fear go.
Blessings and Light-
Healer
