I attempted to stop smoking in March this year and ended up with severe depression, depression being a well known side-effect of stopping smoking. Subsequently I started smoking again, although I'm still on anti-depressants and probably will be for another 2 months at least.
I DO want to stop smoking and am seeing the practice nurse tomorrow with a view to going onto Champix, (also known as Champonix and Chantrix). However, someone told me that you can't use it whilst using anti-depressants. I've searched the Internet and nowhere does it tell me this. Does anyone know whether this is true?
Bea :confused:
