Did you know this?"},"content":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hi,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">How&#8217;s it going?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I am getting this off to you really early because I have a very busy day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Someone who works for me actually two people REALLY have dropped that ball and now I have to take over their jobs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s a major pain that&#8217;s for sure. But as you probably have seen, I started looking for two more good people that really can w.ork from home.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s sad but MANY people can NOT w.ork from home. They really do need a boss to stand over them and micromanage them.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s amazing and sad.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Anyway, let&#8217;s move on to today&#8217;s topic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I recently came across something very disturbing, and it&#8217;s all over the internet, so I need to tell you about it, because it involves hundreds, maybe thousands of people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s about CHANTIX, a stop smoking drug.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This drug is very, very dangerous for people who have bipolar disorder, and possibly you if your loved one is trying to quit smoking, or thinking about it and is taking, or thinking of taking this drug.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">If they are, you need to know what to look for.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The normal side effects are: nausea, vomiting, sleep disturbance, constipation, and flatulence. The sleep disturbance they&#8217;re talking about is weird or vivid dreams.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Now, those were the &#8220;normal&#8221; (usual) side effects. They used to include\u00a0 migraines as well, but they don&#8217;t put that on the new package inserts, but you need to watch out for that, too, if your loved one is prone to having<br \/>\nmigraines.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Here&#8217;s where you especially need to\u00a0 watch your loved one, because the package insert says (and I quote):<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Adverse Reactions for Psychiatric Disorders:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Frequent: Anxiety, Depression, Emotional disorder, Irritability, Restlessness. Infrequent: Aggression, Agitation, Disori- entation, Dissociation, Libido decreased, Mood swings, Thinking abnormal. Rare: Bradyphrenia, Euphoric mood, Hallucination, Psychotic disorder, Suicidal ideation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In my courses\/systems below:<br \/>\nSUPPORTING AN ADULT WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11\">http:\/\/www.bipolarsupporter.com\/report11<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">SUPPORTING A CHILD\/TEEN WITH BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com\">http:\/\/www.bipolarparenting.com<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">HAVE BIPOLAR DISORDER?<br \/>\nVisit:<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net\">http:\/\/www.survivebipolar.net<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I list all the signs\/symptoms of bipolar disorder, so you need to be watching for them anyway, but if you look at the warnings from the label for Chantix that I just quoted, you can see how closely they are related to bipolar symptoms!<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Even if you don&#8217;t want to listen to me, listen to someone who went through it herself:<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8220;Dear Dave:<br \/>\nI want you to warn your readers about taking Chantix to quit smoking if they have bipolar disorder. The drug people won&#8217;t tell you this, but it can cause you to go into an episode. I know, because it did it to me, and I ended up in the hospital.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I know other people who this has happened to, too. And even some people who killed themselves because of it. This is a very dangerous drug for people who have bipolar disorder. You need to tell your readers not to take it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;&#8212;-<br \/>\nSo this isn&#8217;t just coming from me. I had someone tell me they even called the\u00a0 drug company to complain that it doesn&#8217;t warn you on the package insert, and the man said it does tell the doctor to watch you closely if they do prescribe it.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But how many doctors read the package insert? How many have the time to read every package insert for every single drug they prescribe?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Chantix is supposed to be a good drug to help people stop smoking. And maybe it is, for most people.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">But for people who have bipolar disorder,\u00a0 it is a very, very dangerous, even fatal drug (according to reports on the internet).<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">So if your loved one is trying to stop smoking and is taking Chantix, and you notice signs\/symptoms of their bipolar disorder acting up, tell them to check with their doctor (who will either reduce heir dose or tell them to stop taking it),\u00a0 and watch them very, very closely for signs of a bipolar episode.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">FIND OUT WHAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT ME<br \/>\nVisit: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials\">http:\/\/www.bipolarcentral.com\/testimonials<\/a><\/p>\n<p>David Oliver is the author of the shocking guide \u201cBipolar Disorder\u2014The REAL Silent Killer.\u201d  <strong><a href=\"http:\/\/www.hypertracker.com\/go\/Post\/BP_Kills_BlogAd\/\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Click Here<\/span><\/a><\/strong> to get <strong>FREE Information<\/strong> sent via email on how and why bipolar disorder kills.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Hi,<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">How&#8217;s it going?<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">I am getting this off to you really early because I have a very busy day.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Someone who works for me actually two people REALLY have dropped that ball and now I have to take over their jobs.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">It&#8217;s a major pain that&#8217;s for sure.
