Hello lovely people!
I know there'll be a few of you who will be sad to see me back here again and for those whom I've not yet met, Hi, I'm Gem. I quit using Champix last year for 6 months! I was so pleased with my self, totally completely a confirmed non smoker with the help of this forum, jubbly ice lollies and Champix-the-wonder-drug and there was no way I was going back to it ever, uh-uh!
Then life happened. We were finally moving to a nicer area, somewhere better for the kids, proper family home etc. Then we weren't. My husband left in July, leaving me with 2 heartbroken children to be mum and dad to and a business that I had to leave basically ignored until I could get them back on their little feet. So here I am 7 months down the line, a fully fledged single parent, getting my home in order, slowing picking my business back up and ready for my final quit!
So, I'm on day 5 of my 2nd round of Champix, I forgot the late one yesterday which means today is my full full-dose day and already I'm noticing the difference in how cigs taste. There maybe some placebo effect going n or something but whatever works is fine by me! Not setting a quit date, it'll just be whatever day I'm ready next week but I do know that my fag money is going to pay for an amazing holiday for my boys.
Look forward to catching up with you all and see how you're getting on. xx
Hi Debbie, good to 'see' you again. I'm still in the same place, moving plans are off the cards now so I've made my house my project for the next year. Everything needs replacing entirely so I'll have plenty to keep my distracted once quit day rolls around.
How are you getting on? xx
