Day 5 champix

[Jt2017]

Hi all,

So I'm on day 5 of taking champix. I WAS a 20plus a day and today without trying to cut down - I only smoked 8!

That's the good news!

The bad news ...nausea and foggy mind ! Also feeling slightly anxious about upping dosage and the side effects worsening.

But hanging on in there as already there is a clear difference

Jt..Do not stress too much...You will cope.. Yes the morning one is sometimes nasty but taken with breakfast it is not so bad...Good thing you are cutting down already and be patient..I stopped on Day 12 using Champix from 60 a day..stay strong !!!

How is things going now for you Jt2017 ?

Hi all!

I have smoked for three days!

Feeling pretty good - have def had a few cravings some quite intense but mostly just not thinking too much about it.

Have def slept much better!

Take it that is a typo Jt2017 and you have NOT smoked for 3 days, if so, huge congratulations and well done, stay close to us - the nicotine will be out of your system after 3 days so the mental battle has begun and your mind and body is rewiring, repairing and recovering which will take time....

Yes! Def a typo! Have not smoked - thanks for words of encouragement
