Update on Hubby Quitting Smoking
My husband is still working on giving up the nasty, smelly, expensive smoking habit. He’s been taking Chantix for a month to help him quit. It’s working well for him. Other than some wild dreams and mood swings, he has not had any bad side effects. He said he could tell immediately that it helped reduce his cravings. He’s gradually been reducing the amount of cigarettes he smokes. Now, he’s on what he hopes is his final pack.
I know this is not easy for him. He’s smoked since he was 14, so he’s developed quite an addiction. Still, he knows that if he wants to improve his changes of living a long, healthy life he needs to give up the smokes. He’s doing real good, and I’m very proud of him.
It’s great that your husband’s doing so well with reducing his smoking. It must be hard to give up after so many years. I’m sure your encouragement is helping too!
Thanks guys. Definitely, it would be so great for him to give up such an unhealthy, expensive habit!
