End of week 3 and beginning of week 4.

I mentally feel like a non smoker - but still having the occasional urge to smoke - these urges just come about without any warning - I can just be driving somewhere (or doing something else unrelated to smoking) - and suddenly I sort of imagine myself lighting a ciggy and it makes me feel as if I want to smoke. Although I don't feel in danger of actually giving in to the urge. Very odd. Also a bit annoying and I wish they would stop!

I am now on a reduced doseage of the champix as advised by the doctor so taking half a one in the morning and half one at night (sometimes I forget to take the one at night).

Also feel like time has stood still!!! Even though it's only 3 weeks since I quit, it feels longer because I'd cut down so drastically due to the champix. In the last week before I actually quit I was only taking about 3 or 4 puffs from each ciggy and had cut down to less than 5 a day (the last few days was about 3 at most).

Anyway, glad to be here :o
