(S.D. Wells) Over 95 percent of people who quit nicotine without help return to the habit within 6 months. How could that be, when the true nicotine physical addiction wears off after just 3 to 4 days? It boils down to the fact that nicotine is a short-term stimulant, but a long-term depressant. Plus, much of the addiction is based on psychological stimulation that stems from physical habits and “rituals.” You see, dopamine is created in the brain, even when you just think about a cigarette, or vaping, or sex, or even your favorite food. So when smokers are trying to quit, there’s a chemical messenger war that’s going on in their brain that’s physical and mental, and the triggers can become unforgiving, if not followed by the drug. Let’s elaborate.

Behavior rituals keep smokers addicted, beyond the 4 day physical nicotine addiction. Most smokers love packing that pack on their hand, tapping the cigarette on its end, and dangling it from their lips while putting off lighting it. The dopamine is already kicking in, knowing the drug will follow soon. Little chemical messengers are doing their job because they’re expecting reward.
Most smokers also change their environment when they puff, heading outside, away from stress. This too provides a dopamine boost, but not enough. Cigarettes are treated with ammonia (freebased) to turn the nicotine into a vapor, so it reaches the heart and brain within 3 seconds. How do you quit THAT?
Then there’s that hand-to-mouth habit, and that’s boosting dopamine production too. Yes, the rituals have all but taken over your life. What to do? Try substituting with healthy snacks, like trail mix, berries or dark chocolate. Also keep going outside for breaks to just breathe deeply, without the nicotine device, and choose superfoods and supplements instead. Keep reading.
The perils and pitfalls of addiction
Over time – years of feeding the nicotine fix and providing your body with a dopamine-creating crutch, the body creates less and less dopamine, and you need a stronger and more frequent fix. Oh, the perils of addiction. When those dopamine production levels drop, form and function go with it. Symptoms include sadness, cognitive changes and sleep problems. Many smokers suffer from dopamine transporter deficiency syndrome, and they have no clue that there is any natural substitute for their drug addiction, and we’ll definitely cover that later.
But first, it’s important to understand how to win the chemical messenger war, the one that defeats the mood swings, the indecision and the dark days. You’ve been over-stimulated by a jacked-up nicotine delivery device for years, and it’s making you lose interest in almost everything, besides the cancer sticks themselves. Your actions have become compulsive, and resistance is futile. Or is it?
Did you know there are superfoods and supplements that naturally boost your “feel good” neurotransmitter that’s associated with reward and pleasure? So what if your “go-to” comfort food was a superfood-supplement combination that boosted your dopamine production, where you didn’t even crave smoking cigarettes or vaping any more?
