Discuss different approaches to quitting, including medication
Iam on day 5 on bupropian 150 SR. it's suggested by doctor. read comments from users on drug.com, astonished. read like miracle. I have not observed any effect so far. does it work?
I have heard that it is helpful for some people. Is your quit date the 10th? Nothing will quit for you but I have heard of several people who were successful at quitting while using this prescription drug. I believe that it lessens your desire to smoke and also helps with the withdrawal side effects. Certainly worth a try. Education and the support that I received here helped me a great deal. Stick around and read, read, read!
Give it a chance. This kind of medicine does take a week or two to rev up so to speak. Meanwhile work your Quititude.
I think you need to read about addiction to nicotine and stay close to this site. It isn't going to quit FOR you but I believe that it can take the edge off the quit. You can do this...one step at a time. I promise you that if you do the reading, you blog, you comment, and you pay attention to advice, it WILL get easier. There will come a time when you will be surprised at how much nicotine controlled you. Nothing is going to just take away the cravings, nothing that I know of.
Wishing you well,
Ellen
