Hi, my husband and I are in our 3rd month of not smoking. We took Zyban, and it wasn't bad at all. We started taking the Zyban, continued to smoke, for about 2 weeks, set our quit date and actually quit 2 days before. We threw out all ash trays, lighters, left over cigarettes, and for the 'urges' we had now and then, we would suck on a lollipop! lol. As i say, it's been 3 months so far, and now and again we have the urge for a cigarette, but it passes if you put your mind on something else. The biggest change so far is the ability to inhale fresh air without coughing your guts up! lol and be prepared for the smell of stale tobacco on people that do smoke. It can really make you heave. I was most surprised when after 3 days of not smoking, i walked in the front door of WalMart, and could smell someone grinding coffee, all the way in the back of the store!! Coming out of WalMart is like running the gauntlet also, I have to cover my nose so as not to smell the cigarettes that the workers stand outside smoking. Not that they don't have the right to do it, but to me now, the smell is so offensive, it's hard to explain!! lol Much good luck with your efforts, give the meds time to kick in, and don't feel you've failed if you still crave a cigarette, the feeling will pass, believe me. Gimme a holler if you have any more questions. cuppa
