“…1), resulting in assessments of positive mood that exceeded pre-quit levels. The positive affect pattern that emerged for the 60 mg group is strikingly different than reported losses in positive affect in the placebo group and in others abstaining from nicotine (Gilbert et al 1998;Lerman et al 2002;Cook et al 2003). Fluoxetine appears to have not only reversed typical reported losses in positive affect following smoking, but stimulated a positive mood improvement that continued to grow 8 weeks after quitting smoking.…”

“…Abstaining from nicotine, even during short periods of time, is accompanied by a cluster of affective responses resembling sub-clinical depression (Gilbert et al 1998). Irritability, anxiety, and depressed mood, for example, are commonly reported mood disturbances that are experienced after quitting smoking (Hughes and Hatsukami 1986;American Psychiatric Association 1994;Gilbert et al 1998).…”

“…Irritability, anxiety, and depressed mood, for example, are commonly reported mood disturbances that are experienced after quitting smoking (Hughes and Hatsukami 1986;American Psychiatric Association 1994;Gilbert et al 1998). Reductions in positive affect, however, have largely been overlooked as a possible response to smoking cessation.…”

“…That neglect is surprising, given the integral relationship between deficient positive mood states and depression (Clark and Watson 1991;Coyne 1994), and evidence that quitting smoking heightens the risk of depressive episodes (Borrelli et al 1996;Tsoh et al 2002). Positive affect declines after quitting smoking (Gilbert et al 1998;Lerman et al 2002;Cook et al 2003) and persists across 30 days of abstinence (Gilbert et al 1998). Further, empirical evidence that positive and negative affect are linked to different neural underpinnings (Davidson 1992) and have different psychological correlates (Watson et al 1988) supports the independence of these constructs.…”

Influence of fluoxetine on positive and negative affect in a clinic-based smoking cessation trial

Rationale-Fluoxetine improves affect in clinical syndromes such as depression and premenstrual dysphoric disorder. Little is known about fluoxetine's influence on mood changes after quitting smoking, which often resemble sub-clinical depression.Objectives-The present study, a re-analysis of previously published data , examined fluoxetine's effect on changes in negative and positive affect following quitting smoking.Methods-Adult smokers (n=175) without clinically significant depression were randomized on a double-blind basis to receive fluoxetine hydrochloride (30 or 60 mg daily) or placebo for 10 weeks in combination with cognitive-behavioral therapy (CBT) for smoking cessation. We postulated that fluoxetine would beneficially influence post-cessation changes in positive and negative affect.Results-Mood change across treatment was analyzed using mixed linear modeling controlling for initial level of nicotine dependence, plasma fluoxetine metabolites, and change in cotinine (a nicotine metabolite) at each visit. Relative to placebo, those on 60 mg fluoxetine experienced an elevation in positive affect that increased across time [t(526) Conclusions-Results indicate that 60 mg of fluoxetine improves both positive and negative mood states after quitting smoking and that diminished positive affect may be an overlooked affective response to smoking cessation.

“…Fourth, we only used a single measure of personality. Given that other studies have shown associations between personality traits and abstinence effects using other measures of personality [e.g., Gilbert et al (1998) used the NEO-five factor inventory], it would be useful to compare findings with the TCI to other personality inventories. Finally, the study was limited to individuals who abstained for 12 hours, and who were not attempting to quit.…”

This study examined associations between three temperament dimensions measured by the Temperament and Character Inventory-125 (Cloninger, 1992) and tobacco abstinence effects. Smokers (N = 203, ≥15 cig/day) attended two laboratory sessions, one following 12hr of abstinence and the other following ad libitum smoking (order counterbalanced). Participants completed measures of withdrawal symptoms, cigarette urges, and affect. Smokers high in Novelty Seeking reported greater abstinence-induced increases in several nicotine withdrawal symptoms, negative affect, and cigarette craving. Smokers high in Harm Avoidance reported greater abstinence-induced increases in negative affect and urges to smoke to relieve distress. Reward Dependence was not associated with abstinence effects. Novelty Seeking and Harm Avoidance showed independent predictive associations with negative affect and urges, and their associations with abstinence effects persisted when controlling for FTND scores. Smokers with different temperaments display different patterns of acute tobacco withdrawal, and may benefit from treatments matched to their particular abstinence profile.
