You all are probably going to say something about this, but i am currently on Chantix, and it definitely helps to quit. I had tried many ways before (cold turkey, gum, patches, hypnosis, etc) but nothing worked. my Dr. suggested it, i tried it, and i have recomended it to several people.

Now i do have to say, i am not one for taking perscription meds, I was perscribed Aderrall and Ritalin for a lot of my childhood, and as a teenager, did the research and figured out that the benifits did not outweigh the side affects.

I think that the entire story is blown out of proportion. Not to sound like an asshole, but I see this family looking for a payday, and not looking at 3/4's of the story. The guy was 3 TIMES OVER THE LEAGAL LIMIT, but that must not have any affect on his behavior.


Whatever. I hope the check makes them feel better for not looking at his drinking problem, and focusing on something that helps him to make better life choices.


My 2 cents...
