As long as you leave a minimum of 8 hours between doses you should be fine. So that is absolutely right, the earlier you take the pill, the less likely it is that you will have trouble sleeping! And to combat the nausea, try taking the pills with a meal and a full glass of water.

Thanks for that roxanne very useful. I wasnt being daft after all lol

If i do have trouble sleeping etc would be okay for me to take calms or the likes of at the same time as zyban

Day 9 - no probs. Caught a few whiffs of puffs of smoke when out and about in the city, but never felt hugely tempted.

Lot happier today - maybe because I allowed myself to stuff my face all day - compensation????

I am so gonna start eating well soon - I promise!!

Good luck to everyone else - looking forward to hearing how you've got on x

I've got to say this thread is giving a lot of inspiration.

I'm looking forward to seeing the nurse on Monday.

I was thinking last night in bed I so wish I listened to my mom all them years ago.

When I was 14 I told my mom I smoked laid my cards on the table etc. She was said that's fine along as long as you can afford to buy them etc. I could at the time, I had a paper round and stocked shelves after school in my local newsagents.

My mom's famous words thinking about it was "GIVE UP NOW WHILST YOUR NOT ADDICTED" did I listen NO now look at me :-(

I know those words stclair, heard them many times.... then I did the same as you! Oh, what twits we were - and there are a load of young'ns there now all ready to take our places in the madness! Folly of youth I believe it's called! :rolleyes:

Sounds hormonal to me Fee. I reckon a night out with a fellow ex-smoker's just what you need!

Very well done jammy dodger, you're going really well. Can feel that week coming on!

Keep up with that great work you've got yourselves so advanced in girls - please, for your sakes - don't let it slip or you'll truly hate yourself til you claw your way back again - IF you do! You EACH have it within you....let it out!

My older brother he started at 26 christ knows why? He`d never so much looked at a cig before then. I work with this woman shes really odd. She smokes at weekends but dont smoke at all during the week, its like she can turn off and on cigs like a light switch
