Hi,
from another thread, I rememberd this advice from a nurse who worked in a ward at a major cancer hospital here. She was caring for people many of whom were dying from the effect of smoking and yet she herself had been unable to give up smoking until she started taking Zyban. She not only was able to give up smoking but felt good at the same time. I later heard that it was an anti-depressive. Iti's also been linked to helping people with other compulsions, including over-eating - which would interest me.
I mention it how to ask if others have found Zyban or other meds helpful for addictive behaviours, especially smoking - and, more especially, where depression or mental illness is a contributing factor.
Thanks,
