Jan. 5, '09, taken by ambulance middle of nite to hospital w/severe chest pains, debilitating headache, shortness of breath and low stomach pain. Hospital stay – - one week. Underwent every test possible…nothing. Almost took a healthy gall bladder…written off as a mysterious virus.

May 23, 2008, took a ride to Walgreen's…purchased two bottles sleeping pills and diabetic razorblades (have NO idea why these!) non-chalantly took a ride to a rural area, parked on an angle on a used car parking lot off the highway…wrote a short note..downed 240 sleeping pills in seconds…woke up six days later in ICU.
while in a coma, was hooked up to /respirator/vent…given last rites… and preps were being made (if I LIVED)…for a possible kidney transplant. Apparently, I cut my arms up…walked the parking lot…as my keys were found in FRONT of my car…somehow got BACK in the car…and spotted by owner of car lot next morning…thrashing about inside the car….

Spent time in a psyche unit and lost all credibility and respect from everyone who knew me. It was hell. Total hell.

Didn't connect the dots until five months later…my mom was the only person who knew I had taken Chantix and kept feeding me articles on the negative side effects of this drug. I was written off by all who loved me as and unpredictable psycho…. babysitting rights had been taken away and everyone looked sideways at me for a year.

I have filed suit. I am PRAYING….PRAYING…my dignity and credibility will be returned to me. 'm not kidding…this drug put me over the top. While under the influence…never even thought TWICE about taking my own life. I was sooo tired. I didn't care. I didn't care about ANYthing…I just wanted out. Chantix, is…as far I am concerned… a lobotomy by mouth.

Thank you so much for your comment. We really appreciate hearing from
the people who are affected by products like Chantix, and by the way
drugs are tested and approved. Thank you for your willingness to voice
the concerns that I am sure many more people share as well!

Sincerely,
