I'm 3 weeks into quitting tobacco.

[Timmay]

I quit smoking. It wasn't that hard.

 

Why is this in general?

 

Because you missed it and haven't reported it to the mods yet.

[WesW]

I quit permantly using Chantix, has bad side effects (but not as bad as tobaccos) works great. Bad nightmares.

 

Yea, my wife experienced some crazy sleep related side effects.... nightmares, sleep walking... you name it! In the end though Chantix worked for her....

 

I had a nightmare where I was watching someone steal all my comics and I couldnt move, does that make this thread legit? I woke up in a cold sweat,

I don't know if it's the Wellbutrin or the patch, but I've been having some crazy vivid dreams. Some of them are..... great.

It's the patch.I had the most vivid dreams when I was on it when I quit smoking.

That sounded so Schwarzenegger-ish.

Can you get these 'patches' over the counter, or do I need a prescription?

They're OTC, and guaranteed to give you vivid dreams. I used them once to quit, and after I failed, I still kept wearing the patch at night for the good times.

It's a rhetorical question?

[comicdonna]

I just bought 6 cartons in Virginia. I couldn't resist at $30 each.

Congrats!

 

1st three weeks is the hardest so hang in there, you're almost home free!

 

On a side note, I'm 3 weeks into telling the wifey I quit smoking

 

If she catches me, I may have to trade some slabs for sleeping room on a boardies couch!

 

 

.. been there, done that.

 

I smoked cigs for twenty years. I fought with my wife over them as I 'quit', went on for about a year. It was too hard to hide the smell so I switched to chewing tobacco, which I must say, to me, was ten times more enjoyable and ten times as hard to quit. I chewed for about year without my wife knowing. She found out about two months ago.

 

Now I'm about three weeks NICOTINE FREE. I will probably never chew tobacco again, but it sure was enjoyable while it lasted. One of life's great pleasures...

Quitting smoking was one of the best things I've ever done. Sixteen years was the last one for good. And, yeah, using those patches right before you go to bed will generate some wicked dreams.

You don't want to get started on that. Once you get hooked you'll need to smoke for weeks just to get off the patch.

[VintageComics]

The first day or two is the hardest. After that, it gets easier every day IMO.

 

I've found that it was always easiest to get a head start on quitting during a cold. You don't feel like smoking when you're hacking, stuffed up and coughing with a sore throat so you might even get a few days head start.
