Getting professional medical help does not mean that you have to under go prolonged medical treatment. Your doctor or even your dentist will be able to guide you and provide you with all the solutions to your queries. They will able to suggest methods of handling the withdrawal symptoms and even prescribe medicines that can help alleviate cravings. One of the most common problems that quitters face is frequent mood changes in the initial stages of nicotine withdrawal. You might even end up feeling sort of depressed and it is here that a medical practitioner can help you with anti-depressants or mood-boosters. It is well and good if you can quit by yourself and overcome the powerful urges to relapse, but if you feel that you might need help there's nothing to feel the least bit guilty about. If you decide that you need the help of medicines, please do not consider yourself to be weak or look upon yourself as a patient. All you have to do is understand how strongly the nicotine had hooked you in, and you can start counting your lucky stars, and patting yourself on the back that you had the will to decide to quit before something really bad happened. Many of us sometimes feel a little uneasy about taking medicines, and no one could blame you for feeling the same. But you should try and look at it like this: right now you do not have any serious affliction apart from the fact that you are smoking. In order to quit smoking you might have to take medicines for maybe a month or two. This is a lot like getting a vaccination as a preventive measure to ward off a disease. On the other hand if you continue smoking, you might end up with major illnesses which will require that you not only continue taking medicines for life but also that your time on earth will be considerably reduced. It's a matter of being proactive than reactive. The U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has approved five medications to help you quit smoking: 1. Bupropion SR -- Available by prescription 2. Nicotine gum -- Available over-the-counter 3. Nicotine inhaler -- Available by prescription 4. Nicotine nasal spray -- Available by prescription 5. Nicotine patch -- Available by prescription and over-the-counter Taking these medicines will not just double your chances of succeeding but will in fact increase your chances by a whopping 80%. But of course it is not just highly recommended, but absolutely vital that you start using these any of these quit smoking aids only after consulting a medical practitioner. |
