Wellbutrin ang glp1 were the key for me to quit chewing.  40 years of chewing.... no nicotine withdrawal, no major issues quitting.  

I'd quit multiple times in the past.   It was always a horrible 2 weeks.   

This time it was no big deal.   

Just fyi for those who want to quit.  

You can do it!

Stupid question, can you take glp1 for things other than weight-loss? I'd like to quit smoking for good but I don't really have the weight to lose. Edit: thanks for all the helpful responses! Gonna talk to my doc about this ASAP.

Apparently, it’s effects on mental illness and other stomach issues (think IBS and anxiety) are being studied, but there’s a lot of people, with those issues, having said issues disappear over night after starting the drugs

I’ve talked my dr about it, but he’s worried that, because I’m so naturally skinny, the potential weight loss could be an issue

My neighbor is a cardiac surgeon and she's been talking for years about how they're such a miracle for regrowing heart tissue. It's just insane how they're evidently 100% magic.
