So I have been smoking weed since about 16 or so (29 now) and cigarettes for the last 3 years.

I've been trying for a year and half to stop the ciggs, but no luck. My doctor suggested and gave me a prescription for Chantix.

She says it may curb my bud appetite, but she has patiets who it hasnt. I do not want to stop smoking bud, but these ciggies have GOT to go.

i read on a few sites that taking chantix and smoking week can have some ill effects - wild dreams, an alomost chemical like high, insomnia. Has anyone used Chantix while still smoking bud?

did you have any effects? I have the presciption waiting to be filled, but i refuse if its going to stop my desire for bud.

thanks people :rasta::stoned::smokin::rastasmoke:imp::hippy:
It takes a very strong mind, and a very strong desire to stay away from the consumption of tobacco...It's so readily available, and one of the most addictive substances you can get your hands on..I've quit smoking several times over the past few years, however cold turkey is the only way to quit...you can't use gum, patches, or a pill for it...because that only creates another thing replacing the cigarettes..if I remember correctly, this 'chantix' blocks the nicotine receptors...however, what happens when you don't take the pills?? You have to control your mind, and have the ability to realize that the only person or thing that can keep you from putting a cigarette in your mouth and lighting it is YOU. Over the past several years they've gradually increased nicotine levels in cigarettes...It's now harder than ever to quit smoking, but it's not impossible. I know this because I've done it without any quit smoking aides whatsoever..merely quitting putting them into my mouth and smoking them(period). You'll have to do the same if you wish to get this habit out of your lifestyle.
