I was taking Prozac for depression when I decided to quit smoking, I was switched to Zyban to help with this. That was not satisfactory for depression or smoking cessation (for me). I was then given another anti-depressant that had bad side effects. Doctor decided to give me Wellbutrin some time ago and it contributed a great deal to my wellbeing. I soon became able to cook meals, read my mail and pay my bills. I feel great and set my 'quit smoking' date for this past Saturday (26th) These medications may be given to some people because they ask for them (advertising), when they should not take them. BUT FOR SOME OF US THEY ARE A GODSEND
