If I can do it probably most anyone can, I was locked in with multiple packs per day for a period consisting of decades.Cold turkey overnight. Just refuse to buy any and keep pushing towards your goal. It's def uphill for awhile.

we have e cigs in canada but they have 0 nicotine in them, i really liked them at the bars...and ive been puffin on one lately because for me its the habit of the inhalation over the actual nicotine

Ditto. That's why I like the e-cig. It gives me that "smoke" feel without the tar and crap that goes with it. I don't use hardly any nicotine in it either. I always get the liquid custom made and cut it with vegetable glycerin. Makes more smoke and saves me cash.

Glad to hear you were able to kick em. I've yet to be able to quit that way, I turn into super bitch when I don't have my nicotine. It doesn't take that much, just a touch to knock the edge off.

Actually, I hope I get a script. Buying at street price just to supply a medicinal dose is killing me. I drop like 4 bills a month because I got tired of hearing my former voodoo doctor bitch about the xans.
He tried to replace them with effexor and that's one nasty drug.
He was replaced, next voodoo quack wasn't much better, as a matter of fact he was worse. So taking things into my own hands seemed easier. Not cheaper but easier.

Your worst times are probably where I am right now. Fortunately I do have the xans .
Hate to change topic and disrupt the support thread to quit smoking so I'll stop and wish you all good luck.

Yeah effexor is bad stuff. I hate that shit. Made my son act pretty crazy, we had a harder time him on that than the Seroquel they put him on. He's off all them now thank god. I'd rather be on benzos than that stuff. Was on it myself for 8 years, really shitty side effects. Good luck bro, hopefully you get a script that helps more than it hurts.

I passed judgement on that nasty drug not 10 pills into my first bottle. Could not take enough to build tolerance.
I had to explain to my last voodoo quack it has the similar chemical structure as meth and the rave party drug mdma, he just looked at me funny and disagreed.
I've been known to like both meth and mdma way back but effexor was never pleasant.
