Smoking is not a Habit
At the same time they are trying to sell us nicotine gum, inhalants or
Champix
, the ads are cleverly designed to remind us how "calming" and "enjoyable" nicotine is in any form. This despite the government ads demanding honesty in advertising. The laugh is on us, as always.

Sometimes It feels so isolating
But it completely messed up my meds and my fibro pain since starting the
champix
has come back with a vengeance. I've now been off the
champix
for 4 weeks but still continue to be in pain despite increasing amityptaline. So I will visit my GP tomorrow to talk to him about trying some meds.

My gums are on fire... How long will this last???
I've tried
champix
, hypnotherapy and vaping. This time I'm vaping again and I'm finding it suprisingly easy but I have the sorest gum and arm rash. I'm also finding that my sinus allergies have gone crazy and I'm coughing and sneezing all the time.

2 weeks and 1 day being a non smoker
I read Alan Carr's easy way to stop smoking and for the first time in my life without using any other stop smoking aids (zyban and
champix
) have stopped smoking very easily.

NON SMOKING TREATMENTS
Champix
(varenicline) Varenicline works by preventing nicotine from binding to receptors (parts of your brain that respond to nicotine), which reduces the rewarding and reinforcing effects of smoking. At the same time it gently stimulates your nicotine receptors, like nicotine does.

First time quitter - not smoked since beginning of July!
I am using
Champix
and I am absolutely stunned that it actually works. Every time previously I have thought about packing in, I have not managed an hour. So this time, I thought I would try
Champix
.
