First non smoking Birthday in more than 20 years.
So I’m sitting here back at the hotel I love in Lake Garda in Italy thinking back to last July/August when I was by the pool armed with my Alan Carr no smoking book, this Healthunlocked website reading everything in the no smoking forums, Champix and sheer determination!!!!! Lol. Almost 10 months on

Day 4 and going ok
Hi everyone. So this is my second time quitting. I have smoked for over 20 years except for a 3 year break when I made the mistake of what harm is just one. I have been on Champix for about 2 weeks but took half dose for the first week and now full dose in the morning and half for the evening. I try

First time writing, currently W6R1 completed, I gave up smoking in January, I needed something to fill the void and gaps where I would have been smoking. I felt quite secure at first as I was taking the drug Champix, 12 week course, it was approaching the end of the tablets, I started to feel sick whilst

Champix week 4 - 6 Days no smoking (although i did try one 4 days in and it was horrid)
Hi there, so im on my 4th week of champix now. And it took until the 21st day of taking them for me to stop. i just wanted to let others know this, as i was reading peoples posts who had stopped in the first couple of weeks. And i found myself wondering if they were even going to work for me, or wether

First day of Champix review
Started Champix yesterday so now I'm on day two, had about 4 - 5 weird dreams last night which I didnt expect to have since I've only just started champix, one dream was scary but I dont remember it now, another had really revved up my anger and felt my emotions were all over the place between switching

Is it normal to have stomach pain/upset after quitting smoking ? I am on my sixth day, dont have any cravings and currently on champix ?
I have taken champix 5 years ago and did quit for 2 years but never experienced all these stomach pains before ?

9 months
So here I am 9 months on drinking my morning coffee & smoking is the FURTHEST thing from my mind. ☕️🤗 (I only realized it was 9 months as Roisin sent me a little well done reminder). Back in the day I would probably be at least on my second cigarette. Being mainly in Italy I’m surrounded by smokers

Almost done week 3 on champix
Hello, I am almost done week 3 on champix and 15 days smoke free. I do eat every time before I take the pill. However still get sick like I drank a bottle of vodka the night before. Head hurts, feel like throwing up, it’s horrible. I am eating none stop. Which is ok. I am not sure how long I can take

Three weeks in 😊😊
Hi you lovely lot, just thought I’d check in. I’m always reading posts as they really do keep me going but a nearly never post. Well I’m three weeks without a ciggie today. Champix side effects have really calmed down but I have halved my night time dosage so maybe that’s helped. I’m still getting

Here I go again
I’ve been away for a while, after 6 months on champix I stopped taking the pill, was tired of managing the upset stomach every time I took it, then I started smoking a bit at Christmas. One led to two, two to three then bam right back to almost a pack a day. Well today I decided enough is enough. I’

Day 4 of no smoking
Day 12 of Champix, day 4 no smoking.. I’m so glad I’ve started the champix, they have been great. I do think that some of the side effects of either not smoking or the champix have taken my mind of the cravings. It’s a lot easier than I thought it would be. I was particularly worried about the weekend

Shortness of breathe
Hi, I haven't had a cigarette for 9 months now. I quit smoking after 30 odd years with Champix. I'm 60. Almost immediately, I experienced really bad SOB. After seeing the doctor and having various tests was told this could be COPD. They put me on some puffers and then a morning only spray but the condition

Champix
Hi there, just beginning to quit with Champix and having the worst time right now. My sleeping pattern is good, everything else is fine, mental health and what not. But I’m 2 days into using Champix and have had extremely long, gory, nightmares since first taking Champix. Has anyone else had the same
