\u201cAfter many attempts to quit smoking, I finally did it. I smoked for 45 years and stopped at least 10 times \u2014 from a few weeks to almost three years. The support and the approach of Kick Your Habits truly helped me take the next step towards a smoke-free life.<\/em>\u201d<\/span> Experience of a client who completed our treatment for smoking addiction.

In small doses, it gives you a pleasant feeling. You feel calm, yet alert. You can focus more easily. Anxiety and tension fade into the background. Unfortunately, that positive mental effect only lasts a few minutes. The physical effects \u2014 a higher blood pressure and heart rate, a reduced appetite \u2014 linger a little longer.<\/p>\n With a higher dose of nicotine, the effect flips. You become nervous. Restless. Your concentration slips away. You feel this shift not only with higher doses, but also when the nicotine wears off \u2014 and with nicotine, that happens quickly. The unpleasant withdrawal symptoms fade almost instantly when you take another dose. That is how smoking becomes so addictive.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text admin_label=”zorgkaart” _builder_version=”4.27.5″ text_font=”Nunito||||||||” background_color=”#FFFFFF” background_size=”initial” background_position=”top_left” background_repeat=”repeat” transform_scale_tablet=”” transform_scale_phone=”” transform_scale_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_translate=”112px|13px” transform_translate_tablet=”” transform_translate_phone=”0px|1px” transform_translate_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_rotate_tablet=”” transform_rotate_phone=”” transform_rotate_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_skew_tablet=”” transform_skew_phone=”” transform_skew_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_origin_tablet=”” transform_origin_phone=”” transform_origin_last_edited=”on|phone” transform_styles_last_edited=”on|phone” max_width=”72%” max_width_tablet=”” max_width_phone=”90%” max_width_last_edited=”on|tablet” module_alignment=”left” custom_margin=”||||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”10px||||false|false” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” custom_padding=”15px|15px|15px|15px” hover_enabled=”0″ transform_styles_tablet=”” transform_styles_phone=”” module_alignment_tablet=”” module_alignment_phone=”center” module_alignment_last_edited=”on|phone” global_colors_info=”{}” sticky_enabled=”0″]<\/p>\n
