This is my 3rd time in last 14 months trying to stop smoking. All 3 times using Chantix. 1st time I lasted 8 mos. Shortly after starting smoking again I used Chantix and stopped, but only for a week or so. Divorce proceedings were starting, so I had my excuse to start smoking again. Divorce final and new year approaching I'm trying to quit again. For me, using Chantix really helps, it's the long-term mental aspect that needs the most attention. Like others reporting on this post, Chantix makes my stomach ill, but only when I get to the 1mg pills.

My suggestions..
1. Get ready menatlly 1st
2. Plan on using Chantix for a short period - 2 mos
3. Work on it -- therapy, habit distractions, exercise, whatever it takes

Good luck to all you quiters! (Rehab is for quiters.....used to say

And like me, keep trying!!
