Well, I wasn't going to bring this topic up until I got closer to my quit date but yay for beating me to the punch.

Yes, I believe this area is for smokers too and I for one will never minimize the addiction as compared to more visible addictions like alcohol or hard drugs. After all, I managed to quit drugs but I've smoked since I was 13.

My quit is coming mid January (screw trying to quit during the holidays) and I'll be using Chantix (I already have the prescription). This will be my seventh quit attempt. Usually I only make it a day or two before I'm curled up in a little ball crying like a kid with a skinned knee. My longest quit was one week using the patch but even then, without smoking my life is devoid of peace. I really need my two packs a day of happy. lol.

Good luck if you make the decision to quit.
