I was just prescribed Chantix almost two weeks ago. After 7 days, I established my quit day on the 8th day. I ended up smoking 3 cigarettes the next day, and one half each day on the 2 following days. Today I have had none so far.
The only thing about Chantix that is strange to me is the fact that it makes me feel "numb", "content", or even oddly excited most of the time without reason. It's like I feel no remorse or reason to cry, and even my boyfriend says he senses some "distance" from me at times as of late. Sometimes I get a little agitated, particularly at the end of the day around dinner time, or at work when people love to try to aggravate me, but that's it. I've started taking some thermogenics with "mood enhancers" such as chromium, Advantra Z, etc, which has helped my aggravation at work a lot. Otherwise I don't feel anything really, which is better than feeling outbursts of anger or thoughts of suicide for sure.
I am also on Zoloft. When I first started taking Zoloft in the beginning I experienced the same "numb" or "content" feeling. I've been on Zoloft and trazadone for almost a year now, and I explained my concerns to the doctor about the medications interacting and she said that it shouldn't. I've only been taking Chantix for about a week and a half, so I guess I'll see how it goes.
