If you want to give up nicotine, you need to follow some simple recommendations that therapist Igor Alentov shared in a conversation with representatives of the publication " Lenta.ru ".
For example, you can create a safer habit in response to an old one.
You should not rush to replace regular cigarettes with vapes, as they cause serious harm to your health.
Alentov noted that smoking is a repetitive action, and the brain loves and reinforces repetitions.
For this reason, you need to give your brain a chance to work according to new algorithms in order to more easily get rid of the old habit.
The specialist recommended changing the daily routine and taking up a new hobby.
As a last resort, you can simply change your usual route from home to work.
It is advisable to spend more time communicating with loved ones, as well as with those who have already overcome the bad habit or are quitting smoking.
This reduces anxiety.
The doctor emphasized that special patches and sprays are effective, but they should be used after consultation with a doctor, otherwise they will only interfere.
