Smoking Cessation
"I started smoking at 11 years old. Smoked 2 packs a day till I was 48 years old. I have tried several other products before but nothing worked. I am Bi-polar but really wanted to try Chantix. My psychiatrist gave me the script and is watching closely. I quit smoking after 2 weeks on Chantix and have been quit for 5 1/2 months now. I stopped Chantix cold turkey 3 days ago. I am having some anxiety, mood swings but today was much better than yesterday. I suffered from constipation, swelling, bloating, terrible gas, sweet cravings, sweats (day and night) and I have gained 30 lbs while I was taking Chantix. But I AM SMOKE FREE. I am a diabetic and I have cancer and heart disease in my family, so quitting was very important to me."
