Just met with mh dr and she perscribed me chantax
But insurance doesnt cover it and it cost 148$
For that amount of money ill go cold turkey off the loszenges; ive used the loszenges for 288 days, i think its time to mustle it out and quit nicotine for the last time
0.90 days so far
The longest i made it was 4 days during 20 years of smoking nic

I didn’t have much luck with Chantax and it did play with my mind a bit too (more depressive dark thoughts) – this was over 30 years ago.
0.90 days is amazing friend – just keep pushing through. I did play mind games with myself and chewed reg mint gum instead of the nic gum whenever i got a craving and this helped me kick the nic gum. Maybe try some hard candy when you want lozenges?
Sending you strength and luck my friend - i know you can kick this habit 💪

Keep fighting. You dont want to be a slave to it. Everytime you think of buying nic lozenges etc put the cash in a savings fund!

Don’t give in friend. You can do this. Every craving survived means the next one is ever so slightly less severe. You won’t notice at first but in the longer run you will. Hang in there and you never have to do this again. Keep going 🫂
