...but so far, I'm feeling an aversion to alcohol rather than cigarettes. I know this effect has been reported, but has anyone else here noticed it themselves? I don't mind it, but I'm not much of a drinker to begin with. I suppose I am used to consuming half a dozen drinks a week, but for the past week I haven't been interested in finishing so much as a short glass of beer, and here it is the height of summer.
Had a little nausea last night, but it passed within a few minutes. I'm smoking less, at least when I'm not parked in front of the computer. Still getting a nice happy feeling from the Chantix. Untreated anxiety and dysthymic tendencies, much?
Jake and I have decided on a quit date of next Monday. This weekend is an annual camping trip with friends, so it seemed most prudent to wait.
Meanwhile, HUUUUUGE props this morning to Tabatha on her first quit day!!!!

I have heard about the alcohol thing as well. Remember, Chantix reportedly releases about 60% of the dopamine that nicotine does. I haven't had the effects you are talking about but am a little envious!!! Good luck and will be thinking of you Monday. Also remember, Chantix has coated your nicotine receptors so you won't feel the effects of a cig as much.
Thanks for the props its going well. I have only had a few urges I wish you the best on your journey when you lay em down on Monday!!!!
I wrote a story on Chantix and how the Addiction feels "turned off" and it's effect on other addictive substances like alcohol. I don't feel like drinking either and have noticed that I make lots of excuses about being allowed to cheat if I drink. Log onto BlogFabulous for more support. Congradulations on becoming a non-smoker. Proud of you.
