Good luck, wyzas. Quitting smoking is one of the best things I've done for myself. Not to be continually chained to those things anymore, it's true freedom.
Ordering various flavors of herring snacks from Walmart and looking forward to the rebroadcast of Game 1. I wasn't feeling well last night, so I went to bed early and missed the conclusion of the game.

And yes, you should stop smoking. 
I went with bupropion because of the horror stories I've heard with varenicline.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

LOL
I'm taking it as an anti-depressant, I didn't know it also used to help people stop smoking. I guess it's working for me in that regard, too, because I didn't have a desire to smoke before, and now I really, really don't.

Having a pretty good week. My quarterly labs were a lot better this time than back in July. A1c down half a point, liver numbers back in the normal range. The x-ray I had revealed I'm growing more kidney stones in the left side, but it seems like it's in the early stage. Won't know more until I see the urologist in a couple weeks.

Better now. Thanks everyone. Gorram things come and go as they please, but it can help just letting someone know.
I'm going to try to draw something now to keep my mind of it. Best way to get over a panic attack is distract yourself from the feeling of dying minutes before.
