I cheated and used Chantix to quit after a 20 year pack-a-day habit. After dozens of failed attempts it was super-easy to quit on this drug. I'm not sure why everyone doesn't use it, it's a miracle drug.
Agreed but I'm sure everyone doesn't need to use it as not everyone smokes :P
I quit earlier this year with the help of it. Actually everyone I know who ever used it successfully quit. The biggest thing I ever heard (and experienced) with it was strange and vivid dreams.
Still now I have vivid dreams of smoking a cigarette weekly (or more). Hoping that passes.
Also the suicidal thoughts. My neighbor was on chantix and ended taking his life. Not proof that they are related, or wouldn't have happened if he had not been on the drug.

Ya, Chantix (Champix in Canada) is great. I quit for several years on it, and it's pretty easy.
You smoke for a week or so when you start, and by the end of that period, you just don't care about cigarettes anymore.
Be careful when you're driving with it though, apparently there is a marked increase in car accidents:

Still safer than smoking probably ;)
I found it helps to drink a lot of water as well.

I tried Chantix and had horrible night terrors. This isn't a rare side effect.
