Not sure if anyone will remember me - I joined in June as a cold turkey quitter and seemed to be doing so well until day 6; a worrying, ongoing situation in my personal life flared up and it was just a bridge too far and I ended up smoking again. I was too upset about my failure to return to the forum (everyone here is so supportive and friendly and I felt really embarrassed
I am now into a new quit attempt using Champix. (I decided to have a bit of help this time). I had my last puff at 2.15pm on 8 August although for a week leading up to that I had only had about 2 or 3 a day and then not able to smoke the whole cigarette. Champix really does make smoking feel utterly pointless!
So, just wanted to re-introduce myself... Half way through my second smoke free week. Look forward to catching up on how the other June quitters are doing.

Hi Dippy egg... That's right... they didn't notice! They only noticed this time when I had gone over a week without smoking! Now they all know and are seemingly quite underwhelmed! Probably thinking they've seen it all before :rolleyes:
I am, as ever, determined. This time it feels different and of course, using champix is a much different experience to cold turkey.
