The occurrence of relapse is generally caused by smoking at first. After that, smokers occasionally smoke, and if preventive measures are not taken, they may continue to develop into relapse. Therefore, to prevent recurrence, we must first find the trigger. In the early stage of quitting smoking, we should try to avoid contact with known high-risk situations that are easy to cause smoking desire, and then gradually contact people or places related to smoking in the past, and prepare a response plan. Smokers should know that the onset of addiction is only a short time. At this time, they should recall the reasons for quitting smoking and remember not to smoke again after quitting smoking. Using some methods to divert attention will also make a cigarette addiction pass quickly. In this process, you can take a deep breath, drink plenty of water and eat sugar-free gum.
Occasionally inhaling will be the beginning of relapse.
Smokers also need to be prepared for occasional smoking. The attitude and practice of double inhalation are closely related to recurrence, and timely response to double inhalation is helpful to prevent subsequent recurrence. Some people will think "I can just smoke one" after quitting smoking. This is a common but particularly dangerous idea. Because smoking addiction is essentially a chronic encephalopathy, the pleasant experience of smoking brought by nicotine can stay in the brain for a long time. Even smoking only one cigarette can remind smokers of the pleasant feeling of smoking before, and then they want to smoke another cigarette, which is often the beginning of relapse.
Smokers can do something else when they have the idea of smoking a cigarette, and avoid smoking this cigarette by diverting their attention.
