Anyone who knows me, knows that I am laid back so it was completely out of character for me.

Dangerous stuff IMHO.
Depression can present itself in a variety of ways and one major symptom is irritability or shortened temper. Some people feel down when they get depressed, others just get pissed about everything, it just depends on the person. As for chantix, it really depends on the person, but just like any drug, you want to carefully monitor for any side effects, especially when they are as well documented as with this one.
