Substitutes include chewing gum, candy, mints, herbal cigarettes and pills.
Do not use any substitute.
They only hinder the process rather than facilitate it. If you overtake the suffering, and you use a substitute, it only extends the flour and strengthens them.
In actual fact, you say to yourself: "I want to smoke, or to fill the void." It's just that the robbers to surrender or give in to a child's tantrum.
After all, it will only prolong the appearance of episodes of discomfort and torture yourself. In any case, no substitutes ease the pangs of withdrawal. You feel the craving for nicotine, but not for food.
Substitutes can only get you to continue to think about smoking.
Remember the following points:
1. there is no nicotine substitutes.
2. You do not need nicotine. It is not food and poison. When you overtake attack discomfort, remind yourself that the pangs of withdrawal affects only smokers. Consider these torments another evil drug. Imagine flour withdrawal - is the agony of nicotine monster.
3. Remember: Cigarette creates a void, not fill it. The sooner you realize that you do not need to smoke or to do something else instead, the more will become available.
In particular, avoid any products containing nicotine, no matter whether it is a chewing gum, patch, spray, or the latest gimmick - inhaler resembles a plastic cigarette.
Yes, indeed, a small proportion of smokers who tried to quit smoking using nicotine substitutes, succeeded in his endeavor, and now attribute their achievements to their use.
However, they stopped smoking despite the use of substitutes, and not because of them. It is disappointing that many doctors continue to recommend treatment by nicotine replacement.
This is not surprising: if you are not fully understand the essence of nicotine trap, nicotine replacement method looks quite convincing.
It is based on the belief that when you embark on an attempt to quit smoking, you have two powerful enemies that you have to overcome:
1. The habit to break.
2. Suffering withdrawal from nicotine to survive.
If you need to win two strong opponents, it is reasonable to fight them not at the same time, and in turn.
Therefore, quit smoking, you will at first take any nicotine substitute. When the smoking habit will be broken, and gradually begin to reduce the intake of nicotine, ie, They beat each enemy individually. That sounds perfectly reasonable, but this method is, unfortunately, based on a false premise.
Smoking - not a habit and addiction.
The physical pain caused by Unlearning nicotine is hardly noticeable.
Quit smoking, you are aiming at the same time to kill and a little nicotine monster that lives in the body, and a great monster who dwells in your mind.
The method of nicotine replacement prolongs the life of the little monsters, which in turn extends the life of the big monster. Remember that the "Easy Way" allows you to quit smoking immediately.
You kill a large monster ("brainwashing") even before the smoke a last cigarette. Soon the little monster and die, but this does not become a bigger problem for you than it was when he was in your smoker, even until the monster is dead.
Think about whether you can cure the addict from addiction, recommending him to take the same drug? One well-known and esteemed doctor once said on national television that some smokers are so heavily dependent on nicotine if they quit smoking, they will have a lifetime to take substitutes.
How could this doctor let so knock yourself confused to believe that the human body may depend not only on the receipt of food, water and oxygen, but also on the potent poison?
Our clinic frequented by smokers managed to quit smoking, but became dependent on nicotine gum. Others are addicted to it, continuing to smoke. And let that taste of nicotine gum is disgusting, do not fool you - exactly the same taste and was the first cigarette.
All substitutes have the same effect as the nicotine gum: "I can not smoke a cigarette, so take gum or mint to fill the void." Although distinguish the feeling of emptiness generated by the desire to smoke a cigarette, from hunger is not possible, one can not satisfy hunger, quenching another.
It turns out that getting your belly chewing gum or mints are specifically designed to get you to desire a cigarette.
But the main evil substitutes is that they prolong the existence of the underlying problem, ie, "Brainwashing." Do you need a substitute for the flu when it passes? Of course not. Your words "I need a substitute for smoking" actually means: "I bring a tremendous sacrifice."
Depression together with a method of willpower caused by the fact that the smoker believes that the sacrifices. You simply substituting one problem another. There is no joy in the absorption of chocolates, you just become fat and unhappy, and then again return to the tobacco in a very short time.
Irregular smokers is hard to part with the conviction that they were forcibly deprived of a small reward: a cigarette during a lunch break in the office or in the factory, where it is forbidden to smoke during work or leisure the teachers in the teachers between lessons, or a quick smoke break between patients of doctors.
Some say, "If I did not smoke, I never would have to make a break." This only confirms that the break is often done not because the smoker need it or just want to relax, but because it has eaten a desperate desire to scratch the itchy spot.
Remember, cigarettes have never been real reward.
Think about the example of the tight shoes, which I have already cited. If you need this kind of award should be during work wear shoes one size smaller than you normally wear, but do not allow yourself to remove them until the time comes to break, and then took off, to experience a wonderful moment of relaxation and satisfaction.
Silly? You are absolutely right. But that's exactly what they do all smokers, although it is difficult to see while you are in a trap. Even harder to imagine that soon you will no longer need this little "reward", and you will treat their friends are still in the trap, with genuine pity, wondering why they do not understand.
However, if you continue to deceive yourself into thinking that cigarette was the real reward for you, or you need something to replace it, you'll feel deprived and miserable, and most likely to smoke again.
If you - housewives, teachers, doctors and representatives of other professions - you really need a break to rest, then soon you will get from it even more fun than before, because you will not have the need to strangle themselves. Remember: you do not need substitutes.
Your suffering - is a passionate attraction to the poison, which will soon take place. Let this thought keeps you in the next few days. Enjoy cleansing the body of poison and his mind - from slavery and dependence.
If you become more than it is, because you will improve your appetite, and over the next few days will type extra kilogram, do not worry about it.
When will the "moment of truth", which I will describe later, you will gain confidence and belief that they can solve any problem that can be solved with the help of positive thinking, including eating habits.
However, what you can not do is to start grabbing pieces between meals.
If you begin to "kusochnichat" really grow fat and become miserable, without knowing exactly when you got rid of the addiction to tobacco: you can not solve the problem, and replace it with another.
