Good luck Debbie, I'm sure you'll be fine.

Do post tomorrow and let us know how you're getting on. As Akrri says we're here if you need a rant or a moan!

thanks guys. feeling positive. even tho my quit day isnt till tomorrow have been making lots of effort at cutting down. today i had 3. the hardest thing for me is first thing in morning but hubby was really supportive. He bought me a dressing table so i could avoid some of the bathroom battles and stress (3females vs 1 bathroom and a hubby who takes more time than me to get ready for work!) and even brought me a coffee while i was getting ready to avoid me having a back door step moment!

i have decided my last smoke was 3pm today. does that make it today my quit day or is it the first full day i manage? minor things i know...but all helps me get there!

what ever it takes!

[nsd_user663_24569]

i do! but he has been smoke free for 3yrs now and was so upset that i failed when he succeeded. i was pregant at the time so I stuck with it till about 4hours after the c section!

this time is for me tho rather than being told i need to do it.

woohoo! i am already a good chunk into my first smoke free day!

yay for us quitters!!!!!!

[nsd_user663_24750]

[nsd_user663_24569]

i do fine at home on an eve and fail at work!

anyway just wanted you guys to know am still trying. unfortunately i cant log in here as often as i want because i discovered the computer is one of my triggers!:rolleyes:

will keep in touch when i can. hope you all well and doing great at quitting.

Keep at it Debbie - you can do it!

Sometimes the Champix takes longer to work too - I didn't notice any difference at all until Day 11, and I read about one guy who was on it for 4 weeks before it worked!

Good luck!

Hi all, glad I found this site. Hope I'm posting in the right place. After smoking for 35 years (and I'm not even 50 yet) I think I'm ready to quit. Been debating about it for the last few years. Well, I finally made the call and went to the NHS stop smoking clinic and started on Champix. The day before starting it I cut down to half my usual 25-30 smokes, by marking down each one and making myself wait at least an hour.

Today is the start of day 6. I was kind of disapointed this morning as I had 5 in an hour!! Don't know what happened just thought I was going to go completely back to it YIKES!! But, I think an hour has passed since and I'm going back to how I was the last few days. Has this happened to any of you?

Think the counseling helps, unfortunately I'll be leaving soon to be with family for a few months so I won't be able to go. That is a scary thought! Although my friend also recently quit so I guess I'll have her to lean on

Anyhow, hopefully I'll be able to check in with you all and get some inspiration.

have a lovely day

Val, I would always recommend starting your own thread. The problem when you tag a post onto someone elses is it can be missed. This means you might not get the support you should have got because people didn't know your post was there

There are a lot of people who take champix on the forum who will be able to answer any concerns you have. There is also a champix group you could join if you wanted to.

Congratulations and best wishes with your quit

Thank you! I'll try and figure out how where to go next
