Hi I am new to this forum and reading everyones stories has helped a lot. I am on day 4 of not smoking using champix.Was a heavy smoker around 25-30 a day and more with a glass of wine or 2. Have never tried to give up before as I am a total wimp with no will power! Was told by a periodontist that I would lose all my teeth if I continued smoking so have no choice but to quit. Have had a lot of cravings but trying to stay strong and not give in.

Thanks so much

Thanks for all your replies and I am glad I found this forum as it really helps.

My first 9 days on the champix when I was still smoking were awful and I was crying all the time and feeling really depressed but I decided to keep taking them and I am feeling better. Still finding it really hard not smoking,used to smoking as soon as my eyes were open in the morning so I am lying in bed a little longer and giving myself a good talking too!

Looking forward to having some money for a change and treating my kids.

Love and Light to everyone x

Hi Crystal~ I have that effect on people ;), no seriously im one of these that need to keep writing how i feel almost like a complete diary it helps me to cope.

I have just found a place for free hypnosis downloads, i have downloaded the smoking one and it was really good, like i have said its free. I have put that info on my post within the October Group so check it out if you like.

Anyhow good luck because together we can all do this :)
