I've noticed an interesting side effect of quitting smoking/taking Chantix.
For the last few weeks, I have been unable to have a complete thought or remember anything more then my name, rank and serial number.
Seriously, It's like I've swallowed a stupid pill. And I'm afraid it may be a little blue stupid pill.
I'm talking about stuff like going to the movie rental place to return the movies, but realizing after I'm in the store that I forget them at home. Making a list for the grocery store, but still forgetting to buy 10 items on the list because I lost the list 1/2 way through shopping. Missing conference calls and play dates completely. Forgetting to pick up kids for soccer practice. Completely forgetting the names of people I have known for years, so I have resorted to calling everyone "Honey" and "Sweetie" and "What's-His-Name".
It's either early dementia or just a serious case of stupid. I'm just praying that it's temporary and will go away soon!

with the way you characterize your alleged experience so emotionally, i'm not so sure you're telling the truth. I'm thinking you're either:
1) being medically assisted because of some pre-existing condition by the nicotine and now you aren't smoking, or
2) you are a shill that wants to see chantix fail because it works.
Sorry for #2, but the stuff is so effective for so many people that doubtless Phillip Morris would pay for some underground sniping of Chantix - it's the logical thing to do isn't it ;)
jamesr,
You're an idiot. Have a nice day!
