Go See Mr. Doctor about some Chantix. Lots of people have been saying how great it works, so it's probably worth a shot.


(It's basically a drug that gives you enough effects of nicotine that you wont really have as many cravings for a cigarette.... but, if you do have a craving for a cigarette, you wont get the same effects, since the drug is already at the nicotine receptors in teh brain....)

That's true... but everybody is different too! Might be worth a shot eventually.

Chantix is the bomb ! I smoked for 33 years and quit ! It was easy too. The shit really works. I never thought I would ever be able to do it. Just get some and eat it ! You still get to smoke and in a week you wont want to because they taste like ass ! Hell I didn't even want to kill everyone.

So does anyone have anymore advice to offer on my lighter/fuse problem as opposed to my smoking habit. I appreciate the concern and suggestions but I am just not ready to quit yet.

Another happy customer! I know I'm hijacking this thread, but hey, why not keep you alive a little longer! My Girlfriend works as a radiation therapist and can't stand smokers (As she sees what people have to go through!).


I personally work in a pharmacy. I've seen a couple dozen people come in with prescriptions for it, and every time they're skeptical, asking me if I've heard anything about it working or not. I just tell them all give it a shot and let me know!


Sometimes I catch the same people getting their maintenance pack refill, telling me how well it worked for them. A few people have come back and said it hasn't worked, but you have to wonder if they used it correctly or not, or if they gave it a chance.

Granted, I'm sure quitting smoking isn't easy, and I know there's a lot of people out there who have unsuccessfully tried (even with chantix), but if you put your mind to it, you can quit. Chantix just makes it a little easier.


Plus... think of all the money you can save!!!

Sorry.... I'm still sticking with fuse.


Have you tapped into the wires at all for accessories??? Maybe a wire broke???


Is everything else working fine too?
