Hey Beckylynn,
Congratulations!!! I also quit using Chantix and it really minimized the cravings I had on previous quits!!! So, you're one step ahead in your fight to end the addiction!!!
Have you read throught the program and gone through the milestones yet? I found that to be very helpful in preparing for my quit day, as well as through the first month or so!
Also, you really HAVE to have a Positive Mental Attitude going into this process!!! You really have to have that mindset that you are no longer going to be a smoker and that you will do anything to get past this addiction!!!
This site and our members have been very instrumental for me to become a non-smoker!!! Like I told another new quitter earlier today, I was on this site quite a bit in the beginning of my quit!! Read the program and read a lot of the posts that are in these forums, as there is a wealth of information about how to deal with withdrawals and cravings!!! If you have a really bad crave, post and wait for 5 replies! By then your craving will have passed!!!
The main thing is to be committed, take it one minute, one hour, and one day at a time and you CAN be successful in your quit!!!
Good luck and get that quit meter going, and it is very rewarding seeing your numbers grow daily!!
Jim
