Anyone smoking again? If you know someone wanting to stop but just can't,have them try what helped me.I have a very good friend that is a Doctor that refused to write me script for a patch.He said I would smoke while wearing the patch.I asked for a couple of weeks of Welbutin to lean on and it worked. The first day on Welbutin I smoked 9 cigs. The second day 7,then like 5 the third and 1 the 4th day none from then on. I quit the pill on the 5th day. It is some kind of nerve pill. You really have to trust your spouse while taking that little happy pill because you won't get upset if she buys a new car,sell the house or whatever.I hope everyone is still smoke free.

I started again about 10 days ago. About a half a pack a day which is my norm. Started when i got a new job offer and have 2 weeks to decide.

I plan on quitting again monday. I wont give up the fight.

Sorry for letting those that quit with me down. Keep it going. I will catch up!

Thanks! Feelin' good! No cravings. In fact, would probably gag if I tried to smoke at this point. The smell gets to me when I'm out. We were at this restaurant in Slidell LA that had smoking IN the dining room. Gag me! Every table was smoking except us. Blech!

That is one drawback to the South - they haven't learned the words "No Smoking"

Slidell LA. I have family friends from there! They brought me REAL moonshine from there. Most powerful alcohol I EVER had in my life. Grain alcohol is lite beer compared to this stuff. One peanut butter size jar lasted my dad and I ALL summer!
