If you really want to stop smoking, you can. Thankfully, there are now many solutions and products out there that help to quit the habit. Nicotine replacement is one way to reduce a smoker's craving for nicotine. The nicotine gum is particularly popular and sold in some convenience stores as well. The nicotine patch is even about the most common, and it is available to you just about everywhere you look.



If the above technique for quitting smoking does not work, or even if it does, you may want to try your hands at drugs and medications that help you quit smoking. You don't have to worry too hard about these treatments, although you may not get them without a prescription from a certified health professional.



Mostly they are antidepressants and anticholinergic drugs, the most common of which is bupropin. This drug helps you to manage the withdrawal symptoms of the smoking habit so that you can survive the worst of them without tears. I warn you, if you don't have this kind of fortification, especially if you are really addicted to nicotine, you may not be able to deal with the nausea and the headaches, and the loss of appetite, and the other symptoms that come with nicotine withdrawal.



The most important method of smoking cessation is therapy. Psychotherapy by personal sessions with a psychotherapist and by occasional group therapies can go a long way to relieve you of some of the worst effects of smoking. Because you are addicted to nicotine, you cannot conceivably treat just the physical effects of the dependence without addressing the psychosomatic symptoms of smoking as well. Until you are able to do that quite well, you will not get very lucky trying to stop smoking.
