From what I've read, smoking is actually anti-depressive, and that smokers are, in a way, medicating themselves to feel better. (This fits with the answer given above from the guy who said he got depressed when he *quit* smoking.)
The anti-smoking drugs, like Zyban, were actually developed as antidepressants. During clinical trials, the subjects who smoked noticed a decreased urge to smoke and -- bam -- the antismoking pill was born.

There was a study which demonstrated that the substances in cigarettes have antideppresive effects. Well otherwise why would deppresive smoke? I am smoking too when nervous or depressed

Yes.
It slows circulation. Decreasing blood flow to the brain.
It also stimulates dopamine levels....which eventually crash, making you feel more depressed.
