And I'm thinking that maybe I have a bit too much work to do and should postpone it? How can I find info on the internet on Chantix so I can take it with me if I go?
Thank you....

I just called my doc for a refill of chantix. I have one day left on the first month so I've been taking it for 29 days and I think it's great, Stace. It's not a miracle drug by any means but it's been my easiest quit so far. There are still times I'd like to smoke and I am chronicly irritable but it is easiest. I hope it works for you. Just do it as directed. I know a couple of people that made up their own directions and they are both still smoking.

Thanks Kat, this was simple enough. Who knew.
LMAO Brooke!
You are a piece of work!
I'm on about the 43rd day and still no cigs. I had an awful craving for one after I came out of the mall, but those cravings pass by really quick. Still full of crap, but grateful that I'm not polluting my lungs!

Okay...I called the doctor to confirm I still had an appointment today (I was hoping my HP canceled it and was letting me off the hook) so I leave in an hour...I printed out the info and hope he goes for it....Did I ever tell you I fired this doctor a couple years ago cause he wouldn't give me an on-going vicodin prescription nor would he refill my valium for sleep? He had the gall to tell me if I was an alcoholic then I couldn't be taking mind altering drugs...lol....ought to be an interesting appointment today as I owe him an amends too huh?.....
Should be fun Stacey!
Thanks Janet...and thanks for posting your success with the Chantix...sh*t, next you know I'll be buying a bike & getting exercise....<eg>

So Stacey did you get the Chantix? When do you start taking it?
She better start it today or I am going to kick her a**.
I just got back from Walgreens with my chantix refill. Cost me $121.49. If I smoke I will be kicking my own a**. Do you know how many cigarettes 121.49 could buy???

120 bucks equals a pack a day for 30 days.
By taking the Chantix you will NOT be smoking 620 cigarettes this month. That's if you smoked a pack a day when you were a smoker.
GOOD FOR YOU!! It is WORTH IT.. YOUR LUNGS ARE REPAIRING..
Keep up the good work and Congrats on 3 weeks!!

LOL....
Rae,
I got to share this with you...
So I take my prescription into Longs Drugs and I was told most insurance won't cover it so I find out it's $126.00 and at this point in time, I couldn't afford that (I was waiting til after Xmas) so I turn it in and the pharmicist came over with the gal and we were talking about the medication and the gal says, Wow, it IS covered and only $15.00 at which I very openly said "Sh*t"...I had the pharmacist, the gal and a couple other people laughing at me so she asked if I did want it filled, and I said yes, God sure is telling me it is time...So I filled it, I texted Kat that I was getting it at which she said, "good, start tomorrow"...no sympathy, no your going to do great, no I know you can do this...she says start tomorrow or I'll kick your a**....
I took my first dose an hour ago...I sent out a corporate e-mail apologizing ahead of time to my co-workers and bosses and asked them to not take anything I say or do personal for the next 30 days...lol...my boss is cracking up here and I told him, I am not going to be nice which made him laugh more and said, I don't know how to be mean....rrrrr, I will show him....
Thank you so much for all the information and encouragement...I was thinking last night if I never had joined this site and met you special people, I would probably have kept loving those cigarettes until they put me in the ground, 6 feet down...btw, my husband says thank you too....
Wish me luck....
xoxo

Oh Jeeeeze
OK, yes, Stacey, you are going to do fine. It's wonderful that you are going to quit. You are absolutely fantastic. I am so proud of you.
Now shut up.
As Brook says... love you and s*** like that

I feel so much better....thank you...now, can I go take a smoke break? I'm really wanting to see if this sh*t is working yet....Hey, how come us alkies have no patience???
I don't think they'll taste bad till tomorrow. Then they started tasting normal to me after a couple days but I just didn't want them. I'd light up, take a few drags and be done. It was wierd.
It does taste wierd, almost like it was stale, so I put that one out and lit another one, took a drag and it tasted wierd, so I quit.....LOL....wasted 2 cigarettes...
My boss is freaking laughing his as* of at me....hmm, I think maybe you might be safe Kat as I might unleash my homicidal tendencies on him....he doesn't think I know how to not be nice, I will show him!

Stacey,
Your right it was a SIGN from above that the medication was $ 15 bucks. That is cheap. I wish you ALL the luck in the world. Stay strong and focused on your goal. Set a quit date and go with it. Think POSITIVE. If you think positive it is so much easier. Think I can do it. I am strong. If Rae, Kat, SDR, Kerr Bear and other's can do it so can I. Your giving yourself and those that love you a GREAT PRESENT by quitting.
Congrats on taking the 1st step. That is always the hardest.
Try not to hurt anybody. LOL I know it's hard that 1st week but after that you'll be just fine. Remember think positive. It makes a HUGE difference. This is not a punishment. You won't regret being a non-smoker. Believe in yourself. Your going to make it.
