Hello All,

Well day one begins anew for me. Picked up my RX for Chantix last night and beginning today. I am glad to still see some old timers still here but great to see all the new peeps as well. I look forward to meeting you all!

It has been a long 10 months since I have been here but I am ready and able to do this now. Have a lot of new tools in the arsenal so feeling really positive! ;)

Thank you Debbie.

I have tried every other method but Chantix. Could not believe the cost :eek: It was $250 US but it will be worth it in the long run.

A new year and much has changed, I have made major life changes this past year and this is the last of the bad things that has to go. I am very much looking forward to the journey this time. Now I know what I have to do.

It feels good and right to be back. I have a lot to prove to all those people here who have supported me time and time again last year. (you all know who you are!!) You guys are the reason I have come back here. ;)

Lostie,

I am so glad you are here!!!

Yes, this will be the one for me. I am firmly committed to this and I am not giving up. I think I am really ready for this. Already cleared the house of all smoking materials. Buying a new house and hopefully will be closing in three weeks. It will be nice to move in to a new place with no smoking history there.

Of course there will be no more beer and ciggies on the patio as I used to but I am half way there. I gave up all alcohol in January and haven't faltered on that.

Feeling much healthier and happier with much better skills to cope with triggers and such now. I have learned the difference between want and need since I quit drinking. It was a really huge step but I have conquered it. Same fight, different demon lol.

Welcome back Sherri x

Think we both slid off the perch around the same time & now we've hopped right back on :)

Think you will be fine this time with such a strong determined attitude. We really need to take advantage of all the support offered on here don't we?

Lots of luck flower :) Trudy x

Nice to meet you too Skiddaw!

You may be correct lol, the start of a very unruly crew!! :cool:

A question for the Champix/Chantix users: Did you feel that the drug actually took away your desire to smoke?
