I stopped smoking but....

I quit smoking on March 14 2002. After smoking Marlboro reds for 11 years was up to 2 packs a day It was crazy how hard it was I lost my best friend was climbing the walls did the patch, Two weeks was the crazy part. Then one full year of just thinking about it in passing, Stayed smoke free for 4 years and 9 months,

Then on November 17, 2006 I was whitetail deer hunting in upstate NY about two hours morth of my house, the locals have been knockin em dead for years now. and boy do they love to brag and rub it into our faces. So that year they come around showing trail cam pic of a beast. So that night I shot and killed it! when my friend came to see it he was smoking I was so excited, I said give me a butt! BANG I smoked up until 5 weeks ago getting up to a pack a day. Now I have been smoke free for 5 weeks. I did Chantix for me it worked like a Gem! very little withdrawl. you just dont feel like smoking any more.

quiting isn't easy. i hear some new prescription drugs are out maybe check with your doctor

Had a real anti-smoker zealot for a doctor....dumped him when after a week in hospital after an assault, my dressing was not changed and the wound not cleaned ab initio. Besides quitting will expose my to the Chernobyle-like second-hand smoke.

Chantix is one of those FDA approved drugs which can be used to get over smoking habit. It works on body by giving you the same feel good effect like smoking and hence reduces the craving for nicotine. This medicine should only be used in accordance with the instructions of a physician as there are various side effects which may vary from person to person and it includes change of taste, sleeplessness and many more. I have smoked for more than 10 yrs, but now I am spending a smoke free life from last 2 months. Thanks to chantix. Along with having this medicine, you should also have will power and feeling that you want to get over this habit.
