    Default anyone ever use chantix?? (smokers/quitters)

    anyone here ever hear of it? guess its some pill you take to quit smoking and has a decent rate of people actually quitting on it. just checking to see if anyones ever tried it, if it worked for them, side effects all that. i heard it gives you a bunch of trippy ass dreams from quite a few people. which dont bother me, ive already had some pretty weird dreams so thats fine. unless they are even worse then damn...just let me know

    Lolol. Truthfulness emits from this post. Never being a smoker, I can't fathom how it can be so hard to just say, this stuff will kill me, I should stop...but I can't. Later, QD.

    why dont you shut the fuk up, your just mad cause i said your lame ass matching sig/avatar was nothing but a seizure when you said it was cool. stupid kunt. im sorry it irks you, thats not my problem, and unless you smoke then get the fuk outta my sh1t. i promise i dont need to grow some balls, i done plenty of sh1t that leaves you amounting to nothing. if for once i want the easy way out of something when the fukn military is A.) pushing me to do it, and B.) paying for me to do it. im going to take the easy way out. no their not MAKING me, but the BS about it gets old, so im doing it.

    It irks the **** outta me when Smokers/crackheads/etc say "I'm trying to quit/I want to quit", **** that. People will do what they want to do ultimately. If you really WANTED to stop smoking you would have already.

    add some alcohol and its probably even better. i bet thats why he said some people get it and by the 4th or 5th week there done and stop taking them, but you get the prescriptions for 4 months and thats alot of extra pills.

    probably not, most people dont understand how somethings effect other people differently. who gives a damn if you know someone who quit COLD turkey, blah blah blah. if they did good for them. its no different then how someone can drink two beers and be drunk, and other people can drink a 12 pack and be fine. some people can smoke and it doesnt effect them as much as it does others

    Non smokers are always quick to throw out their opinions like they
    know what it's like to be a smoker. That irks me.

    Anyway, I've never made a conscious effort to quit smoking but I know that I need to. I've been a smoker for almost ten years now and I have to say that it sucks.
    I think that if I did attempt to quit that I'd be an awful person. I'd probably kill someone.
    I just don't see myself quitting cold turkey.

    yeah, maybe one day they will learn, i hope they all start smoking. as for quitting cold turkey, yeah im sure i could do it...in the right environment. but being i work and live with smokers, thats going to make it impossible when im always around it and it would be less of a hassle to just grab one. then on top of that if i was in the right environment, with no smokers, ide get alot further and alot more stressed which would cause other problems. and like i said before, what right minded reject is going to go cold turkey when you can get a prescription for free. this isn't no tribal indian warrior initiation sh1t, wtf does it matter how you quit, as long as you quit it, doesnt make you less of a man or women. kinda shows how retarded some ppl are when they say someones a pu55ie about quitting, the point is their quitting. if it was easy for me to start smoking, im going to take the easy to quit, mainly being its offered to me.

    Well, I know I made a comment about not understanding, but hopefully you saw that it wasn't a bashing comment. Just a comment. Truthful, too. I'm not a smoker and that's why I said that I don't understand it. Later, QD.

    i quit cold turkey. i tried wellbutrin once, it just made me feel like ****. i eventually got sick of smelling like smoke, getting ash everywhere, burning ****, wasting money on smokes, fiending for smokes (which i still do some times), and most importantly, not coughing and ****. It's a lot easier to run now. pretty soon you'll get sick of it too and just want to quit.

    if that doesn't happen, go visit the cancer ward at grady. it'll make you think twice.

    but only 1 negative, and thats cause the person didnt want to really quit (doing it for her husband)

    my brother used it. He said it makes you sick for about the first hour after you take the pill but nothing too bad. He said you still kinda wanna smoke sometimes but when you do you can only smoke about 2 hits and then you don't want it anymore. Worked for him, I am about to get it too.

    yeah i feel alittle sick right after i take it, and have a headache, but that really dont bother me its not bad and doesnt last forever. and even though they told me to keep smoking, i get to about half a cigarette then i dont want it anymore either. ill probably try to smoke the rest of this week quit for 3 or 4 weeks while taking it then start downsizes my doses. then save the rest of my refills for my wife. i read on some site that if you just up and quit taking it you will get cravings back again and withdrawls from the chantix. and they said just lowering your doses will fix that.

    damn i love this stuff! ive been taking it for like a week an a half and finally got to my quit day which was last wednesday. its pretty much feels like ive never smoked and i havent needed a cigarette once since then, havent even got the stress you usually get when you havent had a cig. in a while. im sure to all you non smokers are thinking "ohhh wow 3 days", acting like thats nothing, but to everyone else who is a pack a day during the week and a pack and a half a day on the weekends thats next to impossible. but even though the addiction part isnt a prob anymore, the whole breaking the habit is weird.

    i recommend getting it if you can get it cheap or free, if weird dreams dont bother you. i had a dream me and my grandma (who has passed away a while back) were being chased by some guy with a knife and we ended up on some platform raised up around water or something and he came down there and stabbed her, knocked her off the platform and she landed on a bar with her ribs and it even made bone snapping noises, then i went down there and picked her up and took her to the hospital and woke up. aside from that the only other thing is if you dont take it right it will make you feel sick for a little bit. but usually taking it halfway through eating helps

    supposivly, dont see how its addicting but i havent stopped taking it. easier to stop taking a pills that i can only get once without spending a fortune than it is to stop cigs that i can just stop at the gas station and get. so ill be happy either way.

    makes no representative sense at all....haha

    well i havent smoked a cig or even wanted one since the 13th, only other new symptoms ive noticed which may not even be from this is that i was getting bad chest pain and it would move to my throat and then the right side of my jaw/teeth and sometimes my right ear for hours after that. it happen yesterday and the day before at within a 5 min period of 3:30 both times, i figured it was from the chantix so i didnt take it last night or this morning and it didnt happen today. ill start taking it again tonight and see if it starts happening again. but i read about some other symptoms from stuff like the patch and it said it caused aching jaw so im assuming its chantix can cause it too.
    if it starts back up ill probably just finish another 7 day pack and deal with it, then just go solo after that. the expect me to take this stuff 3 months. which isnt bad, its just inconvenient to have to eat enough in the morning before i goto work so it dont make me sick, and if it starts the jaw pain again that will be very inconvenient if i have to start taking ibuprofen about 2 hours before it starts everyday.
