I've smoked since I was 12 or 13 years old...and have quit more times than I can count.
I'll be giving it one more shot soon...my heart tells me that I need to...and I'm sure the cardiologist that I will see on Tuesday will confirm!
I have Chantix in the cupboard...now if I can just convince myself that I need to take it!

I used the Chantix, it was wonderful, I only had to take it for 1 month, I haven't even had the urge to pick up a smoke since, but occasionally I do wish I still smoked, but not gonna happen!!

Congrats! Thats absolutely fabulous. I quit myself about 25 years ago and to this day I hate the smell of smoke. I hate it on myself as well as my clothes or things I buy. Keep up the good work!

Have you ever thought of smoking as a form of suicide?

Charlee, please please do it. For so many reasons and I am sure you already know them all. Good Luck. I'm saying a prayer for you.
