For those of you off of Chantix and had some side effects - i.e. short tempered, melancholy, moody how long did it take after you stopped taking Chantix before things got back to normal? I have been off for a week after being on it for 5 weeks and while I feel better (and still smoke free) I don't feel completely myself and wanted to get others opinion.

The effects aren't unbearable, just curious as I am going on vacation next Wed and want to be as much myself as I can be, a much needed vacation for my husband and I without the kids celebrating our anniversary. I just wanted people's take on their system after getting off the drug.
What does the Dopamine do again, is that what triggers the brain to not want to smoke?
Chantix was (and is) my God-send. I it wasn't for that drug, I would probably be back to my old self of "quiting quiting". hehe. So, for me, I am and always have been myself.
