    Stop Smoking

    I stop smoking last February and I now have anxiety attacks really bad, I can’t eat or drink very much at all because it causes my stomach to bloat and makes me feel like I can’t breathe. I am proud I stop smoking but these side effects makes me wonder if I made the right choice.

    Side effects from Chantix

    I have been taking Chantix to quit smoking for a week. I am having major side effects regarding being irritated, angry, crying, etc. It's honestly getting bad. I also have really lost ambition when it comes to even being productive at work or home. Little things that used to not bother me, are so intense it's crazy. I've also had very vivid dreams at night. My main question is should I continue taking it or stop? I want to quit smoking, but these feelings are not the best especially when....

    Attempts at quitting smoking

    This is my 4th attempt at quitting in 2 months. I lasted 3 days the first 3 times. The 3rd time I detoxified with organic pomegranate juice and fasted for a day. I am already feeling years younger even with continued smoking in between attempts. If you have any advice let me know so I can consider myself a non-smoker for life.

    Always need to smoke when I drive

    I don't know how to stop smoking when I'm driving. I feel like smoking is getting in the way of my daily life. It's all I think about. Just got a new car and it stinks of cigarettes. I need a cigarette at work, when I'm studying, or out with friends. It's too much, but I don't know where to start. I'm hoping someone here can give me some tips. I don't have friends to talk to about this issue.

    Smoker for 38 years

I managed to quit smoking (12 years April 1st/2017) by chewing on sugarless gum every time I wanted a smoke. That was a lot of gum chewing initially but IT WORKED!! Mint or peppermint flavored gum removed my craving over time. Now I'm going to be completely honest.....I'd love a cigarette at this very....
