I was on this before and it made me suicidal so I was pulled from it quickly.

Well I am in a much better place now emotionally and can't quit smoking cold turkey I have tried. I am allergic to the patches and can't stand the gum. I am also allergic to Zyban.

Anyway I don't remember much of the side effects other than the suicidal part. I started taking it Thursday and so far so good. I actually threw my cigarettes away today and really haven't missed them. So I guess it is doing it's job. I think about it every once in awhile thinking hey go bum a cigarette from the neighbor then I think no you are quitting remember your resolution to get healthier this year. So I drink another swig of soda and put it out of my mind. So it has been about 4 hours since I had a cigarette and that is a record for me lately.

I would like to hear experiences from others that have been on this med or are currently on this med.

I don't know if it is the med but I had one really strange dream last night. That's what I get for falling asleep during **** Clark's New Year's Rockin' Eve and then having The Nate Berkus Show come on after that LOL.
