Wow you guys are an inspiration. I am on my 3d week of taking Chantix and have been smoke free for 5 days. I really like the Chantix, I do not feel the horrible withdrawl symptoms, but am dealing with the psychological desire to have a cigarette. I actually have 3 left from my last pack and feel that I'm really committed to quitting for good this time, because even when I'm really wanting to "just have one" I haven't and I know I have them. I honestly think that is what is keeping me sane, knowing I have a few but not actually doing it. It is empowering me to keep going telling myself give it a few minutes and if you need it have it and then in those few minutes I have forgotten. I have smoked for 15 years and wish daily I never started. I hope I am successful as all of you. Thanks for sharing your stories.
