As a sober alcoholic, trained by 2 long term therapies and aftercare, i can say nicotine has the highest addiction potential. After it the list continues with alcohol and cocaine.
To stop an addiction, its important that you stop consuming.
In the human brain, the nucleus accumbens is located that responsible for the neurotransmitter rush we have when having sex,eating, getting promoted etc.
Drugs influence the way and how often such transmitters were produced and emitted.
Drugs put the whole brain upside down by this and the addiction stars by repeating the consumption and increasing the amount consumed.
If the substance is not consumed, withdrawal sets in and with every consumption a new, the brain thinks its ok to drink a bottle of booze because my human feels better after it.
When i dont get booze i dont know how to produce neurotransmitters on my own.
Thats your hangover.
Back to stop smoking, quit and dont try to only smoke 3 cigs a day...wont work because of the brain that must learn to balance the chemistry on its own.
You cant be half-addicted like you cant be half-pregnant.
There are strategies when craving sets in, i got ammonia sticks, little ampulse that contain the strong smelling stuff that distracts me from getting another bottle again.
To be honest, relapses occur, thats addiction. But its worth trying.
My english is not the best, hope you guys get it. |
