How does Wellbutrin affect smoking? I'm interested.
I'm also crap at carrots.
Sometimes when I'm sitting in class... You know, I'm not thinking about class, 'cause that would never happen. I think about kissing you. And it's like everything stops. It's like, it's like freeze frame. Willow kissage.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

It acts as an aphrodisiac for many, so I'm guessing it'd increase smoking.

I may need a bit more of a carrot than that, thanks.
Every time you go to light up, picture yourself in a threesome with Chevy Chase.

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica
Wellbutrin helped me!
It caused me to have a psychotic episode. Which is not an unknown side-effect for people with depression. Kristen was about to call my mother. Now it's one of those red-flags that come up as an "allergy" on my medical record.

IIRC, something to do with dopamine receptors, but I can't remember for sure. (Dopamine being the "pleasure, yay!" receptors. Wellbutrin fools them into thinking they're already in flavor country.)

It gave me crazy rage, Howard Hughes-like social anxiety, and almost a year of insomnia. I am clearly not its target patient. Too much norepinephrine already running around in my brain.

Life moves pretty fast. You don't stop and look around once in a while, you could miss it.
My dad smoked three packs a day for 40 years, up until his first heart attack. At that point he pretended to quit, but actually smoked about two packs a day. He tried everything: hypnosis, patches, gum, suport groups, cold turkey, and nothing worked. Until he used Wellbutrin. He quit after three weeks and never smoked again. It helped us have another few years with him, so I am a Wellbutrin supporter all the way.
ETA: but not, of course, if it damages you.

Now I'm picturing a commercial where a cowboy puts a Wellbutrin in his mouth and says, "Welcome to Flavor Country."

I don't have a particularly inspirational model -- I got sick enough that I didn't feel like smoking one day, and the next day I just decided to see how many days I could go, and it's been almost three months. I've lapsed a couple times with a cigarette here and there, but mostly been OK. It's not the social situations that I have found most daunting, it's the alone time.
If I were to do it again, I'd use patches, because I think the physical withdrawal of the nicotine affected my emotions or whatever in ways I did not anticipate or recognize right away.
