Nicotine Addiction

At one point and time doctors appeared in advertisements giving their approval of cigarettes. Today there is more truth in advertising for cigarettes, but nicotine addiction is still a serious problem for many people. The symptoms of nicotine addiction include an inability to stop smoking and worsening health problems as time goes on. Nicotine is a very addictive drug that causes pretty severe withdrawal symptoms when it is taken away from the body.

Symptoms and Side Effects of Nicotine Addiction

When it comes to the signs and side effects of an addiction to nicotine, there are two main areas that you need to consider. The first is the physical side of the addiction, which is quite powerful. The other is the psychological side which can be just as much of a problem for some people.

Physical side of nicotine addiction:

  • Withdrawal - Intense cravings for nicotine when trying to quit is a good sign of nicotine addiction.
  • Stimulant - Because nicotine is a stimulant, it is easy to become addicted to it.

Psychological Side of Nicotine Addiction:

  • Cravings - Intense cravings for cigarettes when you don't have any or can't have one is a good sign you're addicted to nicotine.
  • Irritability - If you find yourself very agitated and upset when you don't get your normal smoke at the normal time, you may have a problem with nicotine addiction.

Dangers of Nicotine Addiction

Nicotine may make the body feel good at first, but continued use can have serious negative effects on your health. You would think that this would make it easy to give up a nicotine addiction, but the drug is very addictive because of the way it interacts with the body. The damage that smoking (and even chewing tobacco) can do to your body is serious enough that there are warnings on the labels of most tobacco and nicotine products. If these or something else have convinced you that it's time to quit, getting treatment can help make that dream a reality.

Treatment for Nicotine Addiction

Because the dangers of nicotine addiction are so serious when it comes to your health and safety, it is important to get help with treatment so that you can successfully kick the habit once and for all. On Mentaline.com, you can book online sessions with trained therapists that understand the science and the psychology of nicotine addiction. They can help guide you through recovery. Also, Mentaline.com has an online "self-help" forum where you can meet others who are facing the same struggle you are. This can make the battle against nicotine addiction even easier.

Definition of Nicotine Addiction

Nicotine addiction is a physical dependence on the drug nicotine commonly found in cigarettes and other tobacco products. Serious and minor health problems are both signs of nicotine addiction. Treatment for the this physical addiction can be helped quite a bit with online therapy.

Symptoms of / Reasons for Nicotine Addiction

  • Trouble with withdrawal symptoms
  • Health problems
