Hello fellow anti-smokers. I quit again a couple weeks ago with Champix and then promptly went off the drug. For those of you out there still using patches, sorry to rain on your parade but - using nicotine to beat your nicotine addiction is kinda silly. It works for some but, it is way too easy to quit and start, quit and start. Anyway this is how I found the patch. I abused in for a couple years...For myself the big problem is being addicted to starting up again. It became a thing with me.. I guess it always gives a better drug hit when you start a fresh addiction again. Anyhow, Champix was great - not an anti-depresent, non narcotic. Less side effects than anthing else I've tried (believe me I have tried every smoking cessation product). Oh, one last thing. I found coffee was a good temporary replacement for nicotine. Let me know what you think.
