I sort of did, but not fully. My friend told me about chantix and I kept thinking I should try it, but kept putting off going to the doctor..nothing new there. I finally got sick and while I was there asked her for a prescription. I had to tell her how to spell it so she could look it up....lol I got the prescription and read the literature, which mentioned stomach upsets. Since my illness involved stomach problems, I decided to wait until that cleared up. By then I was getting kind of excited about quitting, although I didn't really believe I could actually quit. I had a friend coming to visit, so I decided to time it so that my quit date was the day she left.
I also timed it so I would have 4 days off of work so I could sleep through it...lol....like that happened. That is all I did to plan it. I found this site during my third day, I think. I had been looking online for info, but wasn't finding any support or suggestions other than Just Quit. And that wasn't too helpful. I did the glove compartment stuff, and in my Hell Week befuddlement never even saw the workbook. In fact, never saw it until well into my second month I think....lol Wish I had. Anyway, the combination of chantix and the wise and supportive words from everyone here has helped me to be free from this horrible addiction for good.
