Ive been trying to quit smoking for a year now. I have good and bad days with it. I Have tried everything chantix, patches, gum you name it. I have noticed its harder at work not to smoke on breaks than at home. I work in a smoking environment, at a casino. I am not on the floor but most of my coworkers and friends smoke. I tried the non smoking break room and to be honest its just not a fun as hangin out with the smokers. They laugh and joke around where when you go in the non smoking room they want it quiet and dark. Dont know what that means. I Have a plan to try and quit again in the month of August when I am taking 2 wks off for vacations. Hope it works this time. I have been a smoker since i was 13 yrs old and am now 43 so take it from there

I actually quit smoking some time last month. I was using chantix but quit taking it cause of the mood swings that I got from it. I was hanging out with friends and recently just started smoking once again. It is a very hard habit to kick. I might try again in a couple weeks or maybe even sooner. Good luck with the kicking of the habit ;)!
