Hey Hidden - 1 week smoke free, whahey!! Hope you have a wee treat lined up for yourself for this massive milestone :P I too went cold turkey and that was over 3 years ago, once you get the first few over you and embrace the new found life, it will get easier.

Yeah, we have had some members that had to stop due to depression and anxiety (should not be prescribed if there is a history of this as can be fatal :O )

Our Quitforever had to stop the champix too if you want to buddy up with them.....

Continue to keep us posted, you are doing great!
