I started smoking when I was 14 and started trying to quit when I was 18. When I was twenty eight, I began to experience health problems related to smoking, and after four more years of smoking, I finally kicked the habit last October.
I had to quit smoking weed first, and I used Welbrutrin. It was still hard, and I still get the temptation to smoke at least once a day, but the Welbutrin made it a lot easier to quit. It made the urges to smoke less intense and of shorter duration. When I tried to quit without Welbutrin I found myself dwelling on wanting a cigarette to the point that I couldn't think about anything else, but with it the urge to smoke would come, last for a minute, and then pass. It helped me to forget that I was quitting smoking.
The best part about being freed from tobacco is that I don't feel like I am slowing committing suicide anymore.

Holy crap, are they lites at least? My woman makes me smoke more actually, lol.. she's a chain smoker. When I'm around her i smoke way more. Partially due to how she can sometimes stress me out, but just looking at her smoking all the time makes me want to smoke more.

Damn, that's harsh. 3 packs of reds, you must be pretty tough to handle that! I smoke reds mostly too, sometimes the cheap imitations like gold coast and usa's. $2.20 for gold coast around here..

I can't remember much from then either... and it really wasnt that long ago at all. I'm sure that being a mega pothead all through high school didnt help any.

If you really want to quit, you may want see a Dr. about getting a scrip for Welbutrin. I took it for the first three months, but now I'm off the tobacco and of the meds.
It's not a silver bullet though; you really have to want to quit. It took getting sick for me to really want to quit.

I got some of that wellbutrin laying around. I heard it's supposed to work.. tried it a few times, but it didn't help me relax my hands or anything. I'm naturally just too hyper to sit still.

I think my mom tried using that to quit  She's still smoking at least a pack a day, and taking the welbutrin at the same time.

I used zyban (wellbutrien) to quit before and made it 6 months. It works really well to stop the cravings but its side effect, oddly enough, is anxiety which was a nightmare.

So the wellbutrin induced the anxiety or did it have something to do with not having nicotine you think?

No, wellbutriens side effect in some people is anxiety. Which I find odd as its an anti-depressant.
I didnt even notice it, it was my friends that did. The month I was on it they were like "dude, you are an uppity asshole lately"

SIDE EFFECTS (see also WARNINGS and PRECAUTIONS)
Adverse events commonly encountered in patients treated with WELLBUTRIN are agitation, dry mouth, insomnia, headache/migraine, nausea/vomiting, constipation, and tremor.
Adverse events were sufficiently troublesome to cause discontinuation of treatment with WELLBUTRIN in approximately 10% of the 2,400 patients and volunteers who participated in clinical trials during the product?s initial development. The more common events causing discontinuation include neuropsychiatric disturbances (3.0%), primarily agitation and abnormalities in mental status; gastrointestinal disturbances (2.1%), primarily nausea and vomiting; neurological disturbances (1.7%), primarily seizures, headaches, and sleep disturbances; and dermatologic problems (1.4%), primarily rashes. It is important to note, however, that many of these events occurred at doses that exceed the recommended daily dose.
'agitation' is how they term it there.

Yeah, I was never on it long enough to notice any kind of significant effects at all.

It would be cool if you posted in this thread and detailed your descent into being all stressed and pissed because of no nicotine.
