Hi all
This is my 12th day of being smoke free in 30 years. Ive been on Champix now for 20 days and its been ok. Had to cut back down to 1 tablet a day as I was too spaced out on 2. Now today Im really really struggling. I cant think of anything else than ciggies. My husband has quit with me and he seems to be doing better. We have been encouraging eachother, but even thats not helping today. I think the problem is that as silly as it sounds, I really miss having a cigarette!! Im fed up with chewing gum, I cant stop snacking, which is making me put on weight. I thought maybe if I came on here and let off some steam it might help.
I really dont want to go back on the fags. I feel physically better already than I have in years, just having a really hard day
Sorry for venting
Paulie
Hang in there.
Just hang in there Pauliet - we've all had those days and they're horrible. One thing though they do pass and things improve.
When I had those days at the start I would drink a lot of water, take deep breaths and try to exercise. Walking did, and still does, help to take my mind off things.
