You were right Dave………………………………

So you all know I have quit smoking right? I’ve been taking Chantix to help with the smoking cessation and it is incredible! Almost NO cravings at all, and those I do get are so minor and mild that it takes pretty much no willpower to ignore them. And the side effects? Pretty much non existent (or they are if you follow the directions!!!!!!!). OK, I do get nausea if I take it on an empty stomach but it’s not too bad.
I was warned by a friend though that if you miss a dose it can get ugly. Well, yesterday got ugly.
I missed my dose in the morning ( I have no idea how ) and by noon I was a prick. I feel awful how short tempered I was with my wife and kids, it really kinda scary that forgetting one pill can do something like that. I had another issue going on at home that didn’t help matters either and that one still needs some resolution. I also noticed that yesterday I DID fell more inclined to be emotionally dramatic (on the depressive side, although I did my best to hide that).
Just a little background here:
I am FAR from a depressed or irrational person 99.9% of the time. I have no history of depression and I don’t get angry easily. But yesterday was an extreme departure from the norm. After experiencing that I will be damn sure to not miss another dose!
