Chantix (non-smkg aid)

[pomtzu]

I used some drug (don't remember which - it has been 10 years) to quit.

It was probably Zyban, which I believe was the first of the bad news drugs used as an aid to quit - and I speak from experience when I say "bad news" - very serious bad news!!!!

IMO - cold turkey is the only way to go, and I'd rather suffer those side effects than the potential effects of those poisonous drugs.

It worked and I have no regrets. But I will say the sleeplessness for me was terrible. I had to quit using it way short of the prescribed time because of not being able to sleep...at all...but it worked.

I had the same effects when I tried to use Zyban too.. After the 3rd day of not sleeping I quit using it and went back to smoking. That stuff was WICKED! Soon as I took the first Zyban, I started getting depressed, couldn't eat and all sorts of stuff...That is why I checked out Chantix before I made a decision to try it and from what I have read, Chantix would be worse for me than Zyban was.

Yup...it was Zyban!
