Chantix and quit date

Hi,
I am new to the board. I've been on Chantix for 10 days and have not had any side effects...no nausea, and I don't eat when I take it...just cofee in the morning and I take it.
But! I also have not quit...I am down to 3 a day. Anyone take longer than a week to quit? Somehow knowing that I can have those 3 makes it possible for me to get through the day. But I have to quit! Any ideas or anyone that went through the same thing? By the way, I don't relate to cigarettes tasting bad at this point. They taste GOOD and I'm sucking them down like a lifeline.

Re: Chantix and quit date

New here too - just my second day of taking chantix.

Do you still really really really want to smoke those 3 Or do you think maybe it is just those last 3 are the scarest to give up? Im worried about cravings, every other time I tried to quit the cravings were so intense I just couldnt handle it.

Re: Chantix and quit date

I'm on day 3 of taking chantix and also waiting for the pill to "kick" in.

Do you really want those 3 or is it just habit? How much did you smoke before?

If your only smoking 3 a day I'd say it would be pretty easy from there to go down to 0 .

Hopefully they'll be more post's here with more experience than us newbies.

Re: Chantix and quit date

I'm not even sure how to reply, but here goes. I have some cravings, but the drug works like a miracle. Most of the day I walk around amazed that I am okay and not going crazy like I did when I tried to quit before. And I am not overeating at all. I don't know why I am still on the 3 a day, maybe fear, I don't know.
