This is my fourth full day on Chantix...and it sucks. I just went through a five hour crying jag with my friend - with nothing outside the ordinary occuring. I'm telling you I lost it.
My friend has seen me through some tough times. However, right now in my life things are fine. Yet tonight I broke down and had no control. I felt like a teenage who has all kinds of pent up emotions and doesn't know what to do with them. And as that same teenager, I felt like everything was wrong.
Let me say, this has no basis in reality. My kids are fine, school is good, work is work...
But I lost it tonight..
Not beyone control (I'm still here)...
But beyond control for me.
And the nurse says, "symptoms will subside the more you take it.
I don't think I'll survive it.
I haven't cried or felt so bereft since my divorce.
I want to be done with Chantix.
I want to quit smoking.
What is the price to be levied?
Right now, it's too much.
I can't function.
That is exactly what I experienced on Chantix too! I was put into the hospital for evaluation because my husband didn't know what was wrong with me! It took him about a week to realize that the schizoaffective symptoms were caused by Chantix. I was in the hospital for two (very long!) weeks! I'm still recovering from everything that happened last March, and it's now July! I don't even know how Chantix is still on the market! I'm so glad that your daughter was able to recover that quickly!
