Psychoactive substance is every substance which brought into the organism can modify one or more ‘’functions’’. This definiton for psychoactive substances was given by the World Health Organization. Those are substances or mixture of substances that act on the central nervous system (brain), and cause changes in perception and behaviour. The denial of that substance that modified the functions, rises a group of different symptoms which are definied as “symptoms of abstinence crisis” or “abstinence syndrome”.
Symptoms of nicotine withdrawal can be:
- Dizzines ( which may last one or two day after quitting smoking)
- Depression
- Feelings of frustration, impatience, anger
- Anxiety
- Irritability and restlessness
- Sleep disturbance, including dificulty with sleeping, bad dreams and nightmares
- Headches and chronic tiredness
- Tightness in the chest
These symptoms can lead to the situation that the smoker starts smoking again, and the symptopms withdraw. And so he enters in a viscious circle of smoking again and thinking about quitting .
“Addict” is a smoker who needs cigarettes no matter the situation and when his behaviour is caused by cigarette and he can’t resist smoking, even if he knows that it can cause the damage. This kind of behaviour occurs because there is a niccotine addiction. Effects of nicotine on central nervous system act on the same mechanism as drugs, such as heroin or cocaine, which cause modification of some vital functions. It can accelerate mental processes, to improve physical functioning as well as to create pleasant feelings. All of these symptoms cause among smokers to ask for nicotine again and again, more and more often.
Crisis that begins already after 2 hours ( since the quitting of smoking) can last up to 6 months, and the smoker is faced with a craving for cigarette, has a mood swings, is anxious, with signs of anxious and depressed reactions.
The heart rate is also slowed down, concetration and metabolism are slowed, and the constant hunger is present. These are all reasons why smokers need help of professionals.
