Scared to Death!

Hi New Life Congratulations on your decision to quit! I was scared too about waking up day 1. But you can do this. Sounds like you are worried about your trip to work tomorrow since you go right by the place you pick up your smokes. LOL...I still avoid 7-11's. Can you go to work a different way? I think it helps to change around your other daily little rituals as well as quitting smoking, its a whole brain reversal gig. Change little things, go a different way to work. Back into your parking place instead of pulling in. Drink water instead of soda. Watch channel 2 news instead of channel 6 news. etc. Have a great 1st "new day" of you "NEW LIFE" tomorrow.

Polictics and Wellbutrin and United Health(NO)Care

Hi my new best friends I am wondering if anyone has gone up against United Health(no)Care about paying for Wellbutrin. I have been on Wellbutrin since January 15th. My doc gave me a bunch of samples and a script with 6 refills of 60 pills each. United Health(NO)Care keeps on turning down paying for this drug. They say we need a preauthorize and my doc calls that in and they say again we need the preauthorize. Now I can't get me doc to call a 3rd time, they are like sorry, we tried. So I have this script that is worthless. To pay cash ($237) is out of the question, as my health care costs are reaching $1000 since January 2006 (Because of smoking) I am now out of samples. I am depressed.......I really need the wellbutrin. I am afraid I will fall off the wagon any minute now. Any suggests how to get United Health(NO)Care to pay up?? OR any suggestions of a replacement drug United Health(NO)care will pay for or an herbal remedy that acts like wellbutrin?? Please don't suggest the patch, been off that for a couple of weeks and do not want to reintroduce nicotine to my body. I know wellbutrin worked for me as I was sooo happy about my quit and had only a few cravings, now I am CONSTANTLY thinking about smoking and I am not HAPPY about the quit. Oh also it was my primary doc who gave me the script. Yesterday I got a call from the lung doc office to come in today for the results of my lung biopsy. I asked them to just give me the results and they said it was against their policy. I believe it against them not wanting to pass up another $25 copay. Also I had mentioned to the lung doc last appointment problem with the script, and I was about to run out but he didnt budge to help. I see him at 2pm today (the lung doc) Thanks!!
