New Here

proud of you princess,,,, I am new here also, i started the 8 day step yesterday.. and cutting down each day and on the 8 day as this site says i will lay them down, i hope, i think i am going to try chantix, as read many post here and it seemed to have helped many of them , it has an 8 day starter kit than 12 weeks i think, i also smoked 2 packs or more for 29 years so can appreciate everything you are going thru right now,,,,,,, as i am cutting down like i said and i cut from 2 and half packs a day to 10 cig a day . and will cut one each day till day 8 and hope strong enough to lay them all down and walk away.... have anxiety so bad,,, had staph infection and ecoli in dec after colon surgery and almost didnt make it,,,, close to death plays a roll on the nervous system... so pretty hard right now, lots of tears,,,,, good luck and praying for you

Progress

I am like you,, I have smoked over 2 packs a day for 29 years, tried few times but no success in quiting, came across this site and to be honest i need somewhere to just talk,, it is hard, i have set a date in 8 days, but today I started cutting back and so far If I make it with only 10 cig. today i will be doing great, but nerves shot, i had dr. give my buspirone he gave me the buspirone sr, i noticed they say zyban is the same as buspirone on the web sites, but think there is two different kinds,,, anyway might also try the chantix they say use both together for best results,,, might give it a shot for a month,,, than go alone with nothing,,, good luck to you [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B] 3/18/2007 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] -9 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 0 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] $0 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 0 [B]Hrs:[/B] 0 [B]Mins:[/B] 0 [B]Seconds:[/B] 0
