I think it might be a bit of the above and a bit of "I know what to expect" from the tablets and you aren't feeling their effects as strongly as before.

I had the same problem with patches when I tried to use them for 2 quits. First time, very effective and the second time... didn't seem to help at all. Same patches - different me.

Maybe you would be better trying a different method? Or maybe you should just stop and see what happens?

By the way, I didn't stop smoking until day 10 of the tablets (the pack says between 7 and 14, and day 10 was a Saturday!) - so it may be worth giving it a couple more days before panicking!

Just a rambling thought, hope it makes sense.

Zappa, I stopped with the help of Champix, but what KEPT me stopped imo is educating myself on the subject of nicotine and smoking in general.

I suggest you read Alan Carr - even if you have read it before. I personally

had to read his book 2 or 3 times before the penny actually dropped

Follow the links in my sig also. Honestly, the Champix is great for a kickstart, but getting your head in the right place is the key imo.

Have a nice day, and get reading in preparation for tomorrow nd the rest of your life ok?

No help in the world is gonna get you through if you're not prepared.

Champix

I am on the 2nd time around with Champix and on Day 14. Stoped previously for 8 1/2 mths then like you stupidly took 1 cigarette. Hopefully this time I will have the will power to stay stopped. I stopped smoking on Day 9
