Be careful because alcohol is a depressant, which i'm sure you are aware of. Don't drink to replace the need of an antidepressant because it will only make you feel worse in the long-run.
Why stop the Zyban? Just curious, are you feeling better, have you consulted with your dr about stopping the Zyban. Any antidepressant isn't good to just stop abutly even if you feel you no longer need it. It may be working, and that's why you feel better, so be careful.
My husband takes antidepressants, and when he forgets to take them, he goes into a tailspin at a rapid rate.
Not really clear on your circumstances, but wanted to point out a few facts that might be helpful to you.
Good luck!
