Oy do I want a cigarette! or, Darn you chantix!

for 17 år siden 0 +0 / -0 18

I am taking chantix too and I take my nightly dose at Noon instead of at night because after a week of no sleep I couldn't take it. I also take one tylonol pm too before bed. I know you have been quit for longer now but for anyone having the sleeplessness side effect. Thats what I did.

Tryagain, I hope things are going better for you now. On occasion I also want a cigarette. I wouldn't call it a craving...more of a "nobody would know if I had just one" kind of thing. Then my better sense takes over and I think "WHY would I want to do that?" I quit, I've gone through the worst of it, and why would I want to smoke again after tasting this freedom? I have a feeling I will get these thoughts forever...but as long as I don't smoke, they cannot hurt me. That's what broke my prior quits...thinking I could have just one here and there. I don't want just one...I want them ALL! So sorry about all of the fires in CA, hope they are out by now and that things are returning to normal, whatever that is. I feel so sorry for those folks who lost so much. Wonder how many fires were started by careless smokers???

Ohhh Tresa I need to save my quit money for another year or MORE to get one of these broken teeth fixed! I know that smoking will not help any of the bad things that have been bedeviling me. What I need to get over is the rage, the resentment. It is not the fault of everyone else that I quit. I'm the one that quit. I can change my mind at any moment. The stores are full of packs.

I've broken TWO MORE teeth, with not a cent to fix them. with the money you save from the quit you can start having your teeth fixed, smoking is really bad for your teeth, Iam very sorry for all the stuff going on in your life, but know something?? a cigarette will NOT help any of this, you need to regroup and get your feelings back in check. I hope you get to feeling better soon. Remember why you wanted to quit in the first place take care of yourself Tresa :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]8/8/2002 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1904 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 38,080 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $6,664.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 268 [B]Hrs:[/B] 12 [B]Mins:[/B] 11 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30

Cigarettes Not Smoked

for 17 år siden 0 +0 / -0 519

Oy! I can say a few things about not going well. A couple of weeks ago I lost my beloved 20 year old cat. Two days ago, my son calls in the middle of the night, he has to evac the fires. Business has been in the toilet because it is so smokey and ashey outside no one wants to leave wherever they have a window to close. The animals I have been doing are gratis, volunteer washing smoked up pets. To say I want a cig is an understatement. I've laid off the gum in exchange for sugar free, but my chomping hasn't stopped so I've broken TWO MORE teeth, with not a cent to fix them. I still have not smoked but I am so angry and so resentful. It has become the whole world's fault that I can't have a cigarette. I blame EVERYONE! Everytime the TV has one of the asinine stop smoking public service spots, I want to throw something at the screen. As you might imagine, years of smoking has left my lungs not what they were and the smoke in the air bothers me a lot. I try to stay inside as much as possible. If I smoked now, I'd probably be laid out. It doesn't change things a bit except that I still have not smoked. I feel between a rock and a hard place. When I smoked, I coughed and choked so much that people would say if they coughed like that when smoking, they would surely quit. Now they say if they were that angry and resentful, they would surely start! I still have not smoked. It is possible to quit smoking even when you don't want to. I am a non-smoker. Believe it or not, I consider myself a non-smoker. I can't even be around cigarette smoke anymore. It has nothing to do with the urge which is probably going to be with me for the rest of my life.

Hang in there. Your really addcited to the discomfort and how the cigarettes releive it to feel normal.... Smokers like feeling yucky so they can smoke to feel normal. Hey....you haven't smoke in days so your ALREADY normal. Besides....if you have one....you'll only want one again in a little while. Why bother. Just a thought Mercy [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]1/21/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 276 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 5,520 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $1,233.72 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 36 [B]Hrs:[/B] 7 [B]Mins:[/B] 8 [B]Seconds:[/B] 4

It's good to hear all these new non smokers making it through without a tabacco fix. I'm still on the full dose and when I'm ready will step down and off chantix. It's been so good for me to stop smoking after all these years. Even though things are not going well in my life righr now, That's one thing I can feel good about.
