Melissa, this is huge, and I am celebrating your strength in starting to quit. Yay for you!!!
I know you can do it. I am part of a group of seven friends who have been close since our mid-twenties; we are all now in our early 50s. When we first knew one another, three or four of us were fairly heavy smokers. Over the years, they all tried, and ultimately succeeded, in quitting. But it took several attempts by a couple of them, and while they felt like "failures" if an attempt didn't work, they all added up to a journey in which all of them finally beat it. We are now a completely non-smoking group when we go to a restaurant, which is quite an accomplishment for a group that used to be half and half.
I hope the nausea is not a constant companion. While I'm sure it would help curb the cravings, it also could be a demotivator if it doesn't go away.
Can you tell us a little as to why you chose Chantix and what your decision process was?
Count me among your cheerleaders. I'll be eager to read of your journey.
