smoking cessation
"I have been a "smoke only when I drink" smoker for about 20 years.  I started taking Chantix in January- smoked a few times but it really kicked in after 2 months.  What has been really wonderful is that I have cut down on the drinking a lot- I was never an every day drinker but I think my drinking episodes are down about 50%- what I was afraid of was that I'd drink too much and with my judgment and willpower gone I would smoke- but that has not happened.  I really think I am over it!  I have been taking one pill a day for about a month and have had 5 cigs total during that time- none of which I wanted.  I have not smoked at all for 3 weeks.  Would be interested to hear if anyone else had the same experience re; less drinking"
