Chantix takes its final blow

So let’s see, I’ve been off Chantix for about 4 or 5 days now. It was a blazing success and short of wanting to smoke because I had nothing else to do, the cravings aren’t there. As long as I stay active, I don’t miss smoking, even after a drink or two.

Enter a new problem.

I’ve had a general disdain for all around me. It’s not that anything is irritating or that I’m mad about anything, I just don’t really care and I don’t know why. I’m uninspired, nothing that is typically good, is as enjoyable as it once was and until about 30 minutes ago, I assumed that I was finally losing my mind.

I’m not the grumpy ‘emo’ type. Don’t get me wrong, I’m very emotional but typically in an energetic happy way. I’m not this dark person that I’ve been for… let’s see… 4 or 5 days. I was just on the phone with FMT and the topic of my melancholy came up. Apparently a friend of ours went more manic coming off the pills than going on them… basically, I’m in detox right now and it’s numbing. Forgive any attitude you might have picked up over the past few days. I promise I’m getting better.  Chantix is getting in its final blows.  I told you… little blue vomit demons.

::UPDATE:: I’m not alone!  Check it out!
