Oh ok
i was just wondering about the length of time weaning. Maybe I already asked. I’m ver forgetful these days. I weaned off over maybe a month and when I finally stopped I didn’t notice anything at all
good luck

Great going Eve. I used this forum and Chantix to stop back in 2007.
Have a great day.

So another month has passed, still having craves/thoughts, the cravings are easily dismissed, but the thoughts are maddening. Seriously why after all this time should I still THINK about it. But I know I’m NOT crazy because others further along and a lil behind me are still “thinking “ about it!
Just shows how much this addiction had over me! I would not let a human treat me this bad, had no idea I actually was doing this to myself! Anyway moving on to weaning off......I have started the new regime!
Now 1/2 pill every morning
1/2 pill at night every other day
So will do this for another 30days and hope I can get thru this!
I know I am weaning off sloooooowly but this is what’s best for me!

It’s ok to do it slowly. The important thing is you’re not smoking and you are weaning. Nice

Wow Eve. There is an angle that I’m sure many of us haven’t taken with this the power of addiction; “ I wouldn’t let a human treat me this bad”.
Hmmmm. Definitely not. What a good way to look at it and fuel our fight! Thanks!

Great going Eve. Think I took 6 to 9 months to wean off Chantix. Hardly notice since
I smoked 38 years across 40 years. So very glad it's way back in the past.
Have a great day.

Ok it’s been a rollercoaster of craves. But I kept the dosage longer because of that.....I did finally cut that down by doing the at night pill every 2 days.....did that for 2weeks.
So now I my only dosage is 1/2 a pill in morning......going to try that probably til end of month or if I feel can do sooner I will start skipping days earlier. For me its what I feel my body is telling me. I’m excited to be free of the meds, but I really am apprehensive about just cold turkeying it! Yes I made that word up.....lol
So you are caught up......will post more when changes, but so far yes thoughts, and all that goes with it, but easy to dismiss.
Hugs to all in the journey to freedom!
