I haven't smoked cigarettes in more than 13 years, with it being the case that smoking mostly doesn't do much for me overall. There were various periods in the past when I did smoke cigarettes, although when those periods occurred, I didn't smoke very many cigarettes or keep smoking for very long. Oddly enough, I think that I probably found myself to be more compelled to smoke cigarettes when I was taking Wellbutrin (which is used as a smoking-cessation medication) than I did at any other point in my past. I do think that smoking seemed to be somewhat relaxing for me at times in the past, but beyond that, I only liked doing it so much.
