Stopping smoking...Zyban or Champix?

Question

I have tried a lot of other options ie hynotherapy, patches, a course which included a book and dvd, cold turkey...I am not a heavy smoker but I dont want to smoke at all (I think that it is disgusting when I see someone else do it). I have been told by people that they have had success with the tablets but I am concerned with some of the side effects that have been reported. Is there a more natural alternative that someone can suggest? I have smoked for around 25 years. What success have people had with Zyban or Champix or is there any other suggestions?

Answer 1

I personally don't trust any quit smoking method that deals only with physical nicotine addiction. Drugs especially because they are potentially dangerous also. I personally wouldn't go near the stuff.

Like you I tried several times to quit using patches, gums, herbs etc but none of these worked.

Smoking is more of a psychological addiction than a physical one. If you really want to quit you must discover the reasons why you smoke and then eliminate or change these thought processes. As soon as I dealt with my psychological reasons for smoking I quit, first time and more importantly for good.

Once you deal with the psychological side of smoking it makes the quitting process easy, no matter your level of addiction.

Quitting smoking does not require any patches, gums, herbs or drugs. These methods are expensive, time consuming, potentially harmful and simply do not work. All that is required is a bit of motivation, self belief and determination.

Answer 2

Hi,

I've found at dooblet.com the following alternatives to Zuban:

***** wellbutrin

***** chantix

*** bupropion

** champix

I am absolutelly not in position to recommend you here something. The only thing that I could do is to let you know about existence of potentially most relevant alternatives.

Good luck!
