So I decided with various health issues that it was time to quit smoking (none of my health issues are smoke related btw.) since i figured it was the one thing I could control. Last month I marched my butt to the doctor who asked me if I smoked and whether I wanted to quit. After telling him of my previous failed attempts and the idea of smoking the fluffing nicotine patch, he suggested Chantix. Jubilantly I cruised to the Pharmacy and picked up my subscription and promptly started the next day.
Day 1-3/ 0.5 mg a day still smoking per Chantix plan = felt fantastic
Day 4-7/1 mg a day.. slowed down smoking significantly = felt really great and had no cravings at all.
Day 8/ 2x 1 mg a day ... quit smoking entirely... started dreaming vividly.
The following is an excerpt from the "Dreaming on Chantix? What a ride!!!!" file.. LOL
This morning I dreamt that I went to my doctors two weeks before my appointment. He sent me to the second floor to get a blood result from "Mary" or "Alice". I get in the elevator and find "Samantha" who in order to put on her office attire and give me the copy of the blood test is having to change clothes first along with a fake pregnancy belly.
A few days ago I dreamt that I was ridding my Bearded Dragon "Banana" (which by the way is only 7 inches long LOL) with saddle and all to chase after a bird that was green and blue and had a red line on the neck.
Than there were various vampire dreams which I attribute to the fact that I just read all four books of the Twilight Saga in the course of three days (Yes, being a speed read DOES have it's advantage!)
I would love for some of you to share your weird Chantix induced vivid dreams!
