A lot of folks try for a lot of years to break their nicotine addiction, but many fail miserably because they are targeting their anger at the wrong thing. The enemy is not the cigarette that they smoke ? that is just the messenger, who has done quite a job delivering the message. The enemy is the nicotine, the substance in the drug that both hooks and kills. Learn to direct your actions in the direction that they are meant to go, and you will find much more success.
With the whole of your oral cavity infected by disease due to smoking, you might still be having trouble quitting. Already, you may have been given a death sentence but you cannot stop because your mind cannot leave it alone. You need a shrink.
Having tried all else, you have nothing to lose if they failed; the one last thing you are yet to try out might be hypnotism. A professional could help you program your mind to hate the cigarette and let go of it, and you need not be surprise that it works, because it does.
Addiction is in your mind, although it also begins to affect the physical organs of your body after long enough. Addiction to nicotine can be broken by sheer resolve, but that will not deal with the dependence of your organs on the drug. For that, you might need some medication.
There are a few pills that are known to help with quitting smoking. They do not actually do the job ? that you have to do by yourself ? what they do is that they heal your body. You are personally saddled with the healing of your mind.
I am of the personal belief that breaking an addiction takes both mental and physical effort. In the case of smoking, you have to first drag yourself mentally away from this disease that is killing you, and then physically too. Attempting to do it either way alone would lead to sure failure.
When your esophagus is infected due to smoking, one would have thought it would be easier to quit smoking. But with so many organs in your body also dependent on the narcotic, including your brain, you might find that that idea does not seem to be working. So, I would suggest you sign yourself up for rehab. A few weeks in there could change your life forever.
