Hello,

Here I am on day three of the champix , still feeling positive. After I wrote my post last night I got a big wave of nausea from the champix , felt really crap and the broken sleep didn't help either, but I'm resigned to coping with these side effects in the short term .

Today I felt stronger cravings since I started the champix and I had to deal with a few triggers where in the past I would have automatically reached for a cigarette to relieve the stress. My OH was bugging the life out of me jeez I felt I could kill him for a minute , but it only lasted a few minutes and I managed to walk away muttering under my breath. Then the bolier broke down.. why does this always happen in the depth of winter?. Add two small children into the equation and you get the picture!. Just taken another tablet this evening and hoping that the nausea doesn't hit. Hope you day threers are all good (as we can be).

Best to all

Pammie.

Hi Pammie,

I agree, the cravings were a little stronger today, but I tried to stay busy and so far it seems to be working. I keep thinking I have to add extra time before I do things, to make time for the cigarette break (if that makes sense,) and feel like I have to recalculate how long things took me to do, which after 15 years is a lot of reprogramming!

I've also managed to get through what would be a trigger this evening, coming home from an evening at a non-smoking friends, I would of popped outside the back door as soon as I had come in the front.

My OH has so far managed to avoid my temper, the cats, on the other hand, have managed to feel my wrath.

Hope the boiler is fixed, or fixed soon.

DAY 4 here we come :)
