Getting Going

For the last month I have been cutting back with the help of champix. In the first week I had cut down smoking more then half of my daily usual. Then cut down to 1-3 a day or some days none at all.
Today is my first day off Champix. I've had 2 cigarettes because of stress. My emotions are all over the place. Breathing exercises are helping a lot though. Also, have been having pretty bad diarrhea and hoping it passes soon. I know it will be worth it in the end.

Hi Sagittarius. I stopped champix because I don't believe I need to continue with it. I'm not having the urge to smoke anymore. The last 2 days have been very stressful for me and I still didn't have a cigarette. I'm now using will power to stay off cigarettes rather then using medication, which I think is great as you can only use the medication for a short period anyway.
