Well, I don't know if I'm going to be able to use Chantix to quit. I've been having some pretty
hard core anxiety and depression since I got up to the full dosage of it and for the moment
I am off the Chantix. And on the cigarettes. I totally failed this and right now I just feel awful
and scared and angry with myself. I had such high hopes for this and even when I started
feeling bad I kept taking it because it was working. Things just got to be too bad for me. I
can't even remember a time in my life when I have felt so panicked and trapped. It was (is)
totally awful. Anyone else had an experience like this? Sure could use some input right
about now...

The main reason for that change was that I was tired *all* the time while taking the drug. I finally stopped taking it this past Monday. I forgot to take Monday's dosage and decided to have a go without it. So far, so good. I'm keeping it handy just in case. Hope this helps.
Cheers,

I couldn't function. Like you, I'm off the Chantix and back to smoking, and I am so angry with myself. My doctor wants me to go
back on it at the lower dose, but so far I'm too scared to try. I had to get a prescription for Ativan because I was so panicked all of
the time. So right now I am just kind of in a holding pattern. It kinda sucks. Hang in there...
