Smoking is one of the most difficult habits to quit. Cigarette smoking is socially accepted and cigarettes are easily available, which can be hard to stay away from them. There are billions of smokers, who have made a resolution to stop smoking but do not know where to begin. Smokers experience psychological symptoms, when they quit smoking and become heavily addicted to nicotine. Smokers are finding it difficult to find the best way to quit smoking, since there are scores of methods available to them. These methods affect smokers differently. It is quite possible for a smoker to stop smoking. The best method is to choose the right therapy or treatment, suitable for you to follow. Nicotine replacement therapy or NRT is one of the commonly used treatments to stop smoking. This method is quite effective and gives permanent relief from the addiction. Other treatments include counseling, medication or emotional therapy or a combination of these time tested methods. The success rate of these methods largely depends upon the ability of smokers to cope up with the inevitable withdrawal symptoms. Nicotine replacement therapy consists of giving small doses of nicotine to the addicted smokers in the form of gum, nicotine patches, inhalers or nasal sprays. It considerably reduces the nicotine cravings of the body, since nicotine is supplied at lower levels. The supply of nicotine is reduced steadily and slowly, which allows the smoker's mind and body to adjust with lower levels of nicotine. Nicotine replacement therapy has a high rate of success even with people having several years of smoking habit. Smoking should be completely avoided while undergoing Nicotine replacement therapy. Smoking during the treatment raises the nicotine level of the body, which is very dangerous. Gums and Nicotine patches are easily available at any medical store in the market while all other Nicotine replacement therapy forms should only be taken with proper medical supervision. Another method of breaking the habit of smoking is by taking a drug called Zyban. It stimulates the release of dopamine and nor epinephrine in the body, which produce similar feelings of smoking. It has a modest rate of success with smokers often returns to their past habit. The patients taking this medicine should be in constant touch with their doctors. Zyban should be taken only under the supervision of a medical professional and pregnant ladies and patients suffering from cardiac disorders and epilepsy should avoid this drug. It is important to remember that the habit of smoking can be just as much as emotional addiction as it is physical. Psychological counseling helps the patients to cope up with various withdrawal symptoms of quitting the habit of smoking, including mood changes and anxiety. Trained psychological counselors having rich experience will be able to help you in the battle of stop smoking. Alternate therapies like meditation and Yoga are also found to be very effective.
