Congrats on quitting. I took Chantix for 24 days and I stopped b/c of chest pains and it caused me to have gingivitis (which I have never had in my life.). Now I am experiencing the blues and even homocidal thoughts. I am a believer in Jesus Christ and I at least have him to help me through this tough time. I feel bad for those that don’t have the faith that I have and experience these symptoms it is very dangerous. I do not act on these urges but am scared sometimes. I stopped Chantix cold turkey (now 3 days) I have been smoke free for 30 days. I had quit cold turkey 4 days prior to starting Chantix. My point is your not crazy. Ask God to help you. As long as you don’t act on these symptoms I think they will eventually go away ( I hope). May God’s blessings be with you on your journey to being a non smoker.

Today there are a lot of stop smoking drugs on the market. I use Chantix .
So far I didn’t feel any side effects. But I heard that there are some reports about suicide in result of Chantix consumption.
Masha Coin´s last blog ..Risk of suicide because of stop smoking drugs is overestimated

I can’t believe that intelligent human being would risk their health using a product that admits to having potentially dangerous side-effects when there is a natural and completely safe method of quitting using hypnosis.

I’ve been on Chantix for a week. It has made me anxious, lightly suicidal, unable to sleep for more than 3 or 4 hours at at time and unable to concentrate but it has killed my urge to smoke. I have developed emphysema so I hope it works in the end. Just hope nothing crazy happens in the meantime.

I have just about quit smoking using chantix. I have been taking it about 3 months now. I am not able to smoke more than one puff, so I believe I am ready. As for chantix, it worked great, until recently. I am just now feeling drepressed for no reason. So I am going to stop taking them and pray I don’t pick up a smoke.

I ask my doctor for the Chantix so it could help me quit smoking. I also take an antidepressant. After the 5th day on the chantix I felt like I was having a full blown meltdown with severe sadness. I even questioned life which is NOTHING like me. It was horrible along with the all night dark dreams which I never had before. So, please be aware that chantix stops pleasure receptors in the brain and it stopped ALL pleasures for me. I am going to stop smoking without the chantix. I have heard some great success stories but “Buyer Beware”. Its not for everyone.

I had spoken to my doctor about the side effects of course, and he did mention a couple cases of depression that went along with the Chantix, but he assured me that their symptoms were more from the nicotine withdraw, than the Chantix. I believed him completely until I started acting like Dr. Julie and Webmd’d my mind into full blown fear yesterday! http://www.levitraportal.com

The superb working mechanism of _Pfizer’s anti-smoking medicine chantix makes it a highly sought after drug in the market and further Chantix information available in the website http://www.chantixmagic.com/ make it apparent that the drug acts as a better quit smoking medication that Zyban and other smoking cessation treatments. So, get hold of Chantix right now and trigger off smoking cessation!
